October 9, 2026 | Abdullah Al-Hakimi — WAR MONITOR Yemen Desk

Yemen’s Ansar Allah movement, commonly known as the Houthis, reportedly carried out a series of attacks against positions held by forces aligned with the internationally recognised Presidential Leadership Council (PLC) in Taiz Governorate.

According to footage circulated by the conflict-monitoring account War Noir, the attacks involved anti-tank guided missiles and small arms. The source identified the missiles as Kornet-E or Dehlavieh systems.

The footage appears to show several military vehicles being struck. However, the extent of the damage, the number of vehicles destroyed and any casualties have not been independently established.

The reported incidents highlight continuing hostilities between Houthi forces and PLC-aligned units in Yemen. The timing of the footage and the precise circumstances of the attacks remain unconfirmed.

Independent verification is pending.
