Houthis release video of simulated assault on Israeli village that includes hostage-taking

Yemen’s Houthis release a video simulating an assault by the Iran-backed rebel group on an Israeli community, similar to the Hamas-led atrocities of October 7.

In the clip, Houthi commandos enter a building after storming the fake village, with one of them shooting a poster of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as they do so.

Inside are a pair of men dressed in ultra-Orthodox garb, whom the Houthis take hostage before eventually blowing up the mockup.
