Airstrikes Target Yemeni Military Training Center in Sana'a Amid Foreign Expert Reports

Intensive airstrikes were launched early Sunday on Houthi military targets in the capital Sana'a, with one strike specifically hitting a training center within the former First Armored Division compound. These operations are part of a broader military campaign aimed at disrupting the group's vital infrastructure.

Intelligence sources reported to "Sheba Intelligence Agency" that the targeted site was actively used for extensive training involving Houthi elements alongside foreign military experts, including individuals believed to be affiliated with Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps. The extent of human or material damage at the site, or whether foreign experts were present during the attack, remains unclear.

Intelligence assessments indicate a substantial foreign technical network supporting the Houthis' military capabilities. This network reportedly includes over 50 Russian specialists engaged in electronic warfare, jamming systems, military communications, and satellite technologies. Further information revealed the presence of a specialized Chinese team of six experts focused on drone technology, missiles, and explosive warheads.

According to the same sources, these foreign experts operate from other locations within Sana'a, including an underground operational and residential facility situated beneath a building belonging to the University of Science and Technology. Analysis suggests that the Houthi militia provides an academic cover for these foreigners by listing them as lecturers or consultants in educational programs related to aviation and engineering technologies, a pattern previously observed by the agency in its exploitation of civilian institutions to support war efforts.

This development occurs amidst escalating airstrikes against Houthi command and communication centers, as the Yemeni armed forces continue to target strategic locations in Sana'a and Saada. Intelligence data highlights the diverse nature of external technical support for the Houthis, with Iranians focusing on operational planning, while Russians and Chinese enhance precise technical capabilities. This sustained pressure is increasingly impacting the Houthis' military infrastructure.
