Very rough representation of the Houthi Operation Victory From God initiative.

The Houthi side has made several claims, including:

1. Defeat of three military brigades of the enemy forces with full military equipment and most of their members and commanders.
2. Seizure of large number of weapons, including hundreds of vehicles and armored vehicles.
3. Thousands of enemy personnel were captured, hundreds were killed and injured.
4. The captured service members include large numbers of commanders, officers and soldiers of the Saudi military.
5. Only 72 hours after the start of the operation, Houthi forces fully enforced a siege on the enemy, consisting of three military brigades of traitors and a faction of the Saudi military. They were completely defeated.

They also claimed:

• Houthi fighters captured 350 km2 south of Najran, including dozens of key positions.
• More than 500 Saudi service members and Saudi-backed Yemen fighters were killed.
• More than 2,000 personnel of the Saudi-led coalition were captured, including Saudi officers.
• Hundreds of pick-up trucks, armored vehicles, armored personnel carriers (APCs) and engineering vehicles were captured. At least 15 other vehicles were destroyed.

I have included ballistic missiles, but I think that that was more to targetting the Saudi airbases to prevent them from providing ground support.

I hav ealso allocated two Houthi irregular units and two ant-tank units as air-mobile. This is moreover to place them in stategic points in or to accomplish what might have been thought as element of surprise in their encirclement efforts. I imagine that you will put them on the main roads or to the north.
