Houthis launched a missile attack on a Saudi city: the missile defense system was powerless

The illustrative photo shows a representative of one of the Houthi detachments

Saudi information sources report that a missile attack was launched on the city of Jizan from the territory of neighboring Yemen. This 120-strong city is located in the border province, it has been repeatedly subjected to various types of shelling and attacks, including attacks using drones.

Colonel of the Saudi army Mohammed al-Hamdi announced that the missile was fired by the Houthis, an armed group operating in Yemeni territory. Occasionally, individual Houthi detachments make their way into Saudi territory and carry out attacks on military patrols and border outposts.

Colonel Al-Hamdi:

We received information from local civilian authorities that Jizan came under rocket fire. A rocket was fired. Arriving at the scene, the military found fragments of ammunition, which exploded right on one of the streets.

According to the latest data, five people received shrapnel wounds of varying severity. At the same time, it was noted that among them there are two citizens of Yemen. All victims were sent to the hospital.

Saudi Colonel:

The shelling damaged two houses, a local shop and several cars.

The Saudi Arabian missile defense system, which is based primarily on American complexes, turned out to be powerless against a missile fired by the Houthis, and once again.

Local residents are announcing the shelling. Are they there in the role of air defense or what?

[oleg-gr]

the Saudis have a new type of air defense and missile defense. Local residents. After the explosion, they called and reported. It remains to apply a new method of moving them with telephones to the adjacent territory. Maybe there will be an effect.

[Infinity]

Exactly.
Apparently, their air defense is not on duty and there are serious problems with controlling their own airspace. Moreover, the city is bordering, and the attack is not the first! You can argue as much as you like in the same Patriots, but their radars still detect missiles. And in the right hands, it more or less works, which confirms the number of missiles shot down during the war in the Persian Gulf and in Iraq in the XNUMXs, as well as Syrian planes shot down by Israel (albeit ancient). But, apparently, hot Arab guys know how to use only sports cars obtained from oil revenues, and not sophisticated air defense systems.

[Sergey Sfiedu]

You cannot instruct "Patriots" all over the country .. Local media report a massive attack by Houthi drones on the capital and cities in the central part of the country. Allegedly, all the drones were destroyed, the air defense systems that destroyed the drones were not specified.

But if the

This 120-thousand-strong city is located in the border province, it has repeatedly been subjected to various kinds of shelling and attacksincluding drone attacks.

then Allah himself ordered to put

[Sergey Sfiedu]

120 thousand is a small town by local standards. There are many such towns, and the Patriots cost a lot of money. And then, we do not know what kind of missile they fired at - maybe the banal Grad, against which the Patriot is useless.

[Mikhail3]

He ordered to hope in Allah. The fatal vice of the Muslim religion. In the Christian tradition, the believer is required to daily feat, understood as an effort to rise above oneself, by one's capabilities. Take one more step. Be a little better than it was yesterday. Move forward. And so - every day. This is precisely the reason for the desperate attacks on the Christian religion - the current authorities cannot stand smart and developed subjects, so Christianity is suppressed with all its might.
And in the Muslim tradition there is nothing like that. They say only God is great, but we are people ... that's all. I hope for God, nothing else is required of me ... Their concept of feat is to sacrifice something. To give money, to substitute a head, to eat locusts, like many Christian stupid people, who did not understand anything in Christianity. Stylites, Edrena root ...
So a Muslim specialist will never reach not only his ceiling, but even half his potential will not be revealed. Like some kind of body-positive liberal from Europe. Neither good military nor decent civilian specialists will ever be in a purely Muslim environment. The Saudis have no chance ...

[YOUR]

In order to reflect the impact, it is necessary to constantly keep on both the radar for detection and the air defense system for reflection. This, by definition, cannot be. technology tends to break down, it needs rest as well as a person. maximum time of continuous work 48 hours. If the detection radars will work in shifts, then the air defense system is in a row
In this case, partisan sorties. Somewhere, they set up some kind of self-propelled rocket and launched a city on a point target such as the 120 thousandth city. The same is not ice. Beat on the peace.

This is yes. There are no universal complexes and air defense is built on more than one complex, there is a lot of things (for a specific complex) that are still needed.

Why is she needed there? What difference does it make to the Saudis (this is the name of the royal family) how many of their subjects die? Serfs are not interesting to them. Air defense / missile defense systems cover military bases, royal family properties, oil infrastructure, and other facilities important to the Saudis. At first there were problems, now they have been resolved. There are no critical failures.

This was exactly 28/2 and 1/3
On February 28, 2021, Saudi forces intercepted and destroyed a ballistic missile, inflicted by Yemen on the capital of the kingdom of Riyadh.
Kingdom forces also intercepted six drone attacks on Saturday and early Sunday morning, targeting other parts of the kingdom. (but forgot to tell us about it)
March 2 2021
Military shell, released from Yemen, fell on a public street in one of the border villages.
Intercept projectiles in border villages while they are unable to.
This information looks like an old joke.

the more the Saudis are killed, the cleaner the planet will become, do you think they throw gingerbread into Yemeni cities from planes, or they are so white and fluffy and they didn’t chop Khashogi to pieces in their embassy, ​​these are savages a little involved in civilization, we have not forgotten anything and we know who financed terrorists in Chechnya.
so if some barefoot beggars savages slaughter other rich savages, this can only be applauded and secretly help barefooted savages, kill rich savages as much as possible, and then sell some of our weapons to the second, they are still savages and cannot really use anything

And what kind of bomb would you hang on this thing? Judging by the photo, the boxer dice engine is 20, the wing area is about 30 square meters. dm., the speed is probably not more than 150 km / h. Well, maybe he'll lift a couple of grenades. Nothing serious, so for a get-together.

Why the heck should I woo them something if they themselves scratch with this topic. Well, then, whether to sell them the S-400, or not to sell, it does not exactly depend on us. As for me, then they and "Patriot" are above the roof to the delight of the Houthis, in order to consistently and methodically demonstrate to the world that this vaunted mattress complex is a real bullshit.
R.S-by the way, a couple of years ago, the Houthis also wrote down one boozy “Patriot” at their own expense.

Actually, it's cool that the Houthi tribes are such that no one can cope with them and they still shoot missiles and hit, however, then there is not there.

[voyaka uh]

The same as the Pashtuns in Afghanistan. Also, no one really dealt with them:
neither the Russians nor the Americans.

The Houthis are primitive Bedouin tribes professing Shiite Islam, living in a remote, desert-hilly area. Iran regularly supplies them with weapons.

Seriously? And it seemed to me that they were beaten by everyone, starting with the British. And they only responded with partisans on the sly. Another thing is that everyone who invaded Afghanistan got tired of sitting there, because money goes away, losses go, but there is no profit (oil there, or any metals).

[No name B]

Here you are wrong, Afghanistan has the richest deposits of valuable metals, lithium, gas and gold. But in combination with semi-savage tribes, their value tends to zero.

[kytx]

it is more and more legend and assumption
no large-scale geological exploration in Afghanistan has ever been carried out by anyone
would there be, for example, loose gold
would already have been mined, including these same "semi-wild tribes"
example?
Madagascar and other Africa where, despite the local lawlessness, large companies work quite successfully

[No name B]

There was already an article about Afghan and there was a project for gas production and transit under the USSR. And so in Kiev I talked with civilized Afghans from the cities, they confirmed the reserves of metals and gas, but they said it was all connected with the mountains and there are wild mountaineers, with whom it is more dear to contact.

Africa also has its own "wild mountaineers", but problems with them are somehow solved

The Houthis were told about Forex. The guests of the Saud are sent by the buy button. in the trading terminal Soon the "southern breeze" will blow up many interesting weapons for the Houthis.

One snowflake is not snow yet. There is no data for far-reaching conclusions. Although, on the other hand, an air defense system that missed one missile is unlikely to show itself well in a massive attack. Unless, of course, this air defense was and the rocket was launched not from a nearby blower ..

[shinobi]

In general, the Patriot was not originally a missile defense system. Potentially it can shoot down targets up to 1,5-2 Mach speeds. they are not useful for anything outside the NATO network. And if you consider that they do not sell it but rent it out with their staff, then the situation is generally murky.

[Asad]

It turns out that the United States does not have a full air defense?

[shinobi]

Yes, it’s not even a secret. In the United States itself, it doesn’t need to be defended. There is no defense against a nuclear strike by the Russian Strategic Missile Forces, no matter what they write in their media. And those with whom the Yankees usually fight, like as a rule, the Air Force is absent even as a concept.
