A remake after 2,500 years!
300 Spartans couldn't hold Thermopylae, but 300 Houthis managed to hold Bab al-Mandab Strait!
Pro-Saudi forces are conducting "tactical formation" in the southwest of Lahij district. The units that held the Dabab airport and those that blocked the Houthi garrison in the mountain range opposite the Bab al-Mandab strait retreated to the east. Thus the heroic defense of the strait by the army's special forces soldiers and the tribal militia of the Houthi movement was successfully completed. Let me remind you that the Houthi garrison of less than a battalion (about 300 men) held the dominant heights for 40 days, repelling 3 major assaults and about 15 separate attacks, inflicting heavy losses of men and equipment on the attacking Amaliki and Deir al-Watan brigades.
