In a statement released late Saturday, the Giants Brigades said their forces had thwarted a desperate Houthi attempt to advance toward the airport, located along Yemen's western coast near the strategic Bab Al-Mandab Strait.

The brigades said they “destroyed five Houthi armored vehicles, killing those aboard” during the confrontation.

They also released video footage purportedly showing the vehicles being targeted, with flames rising from the wreckage.

Earlier Saturday, the Giants Brigades announced that they had repelled another Houthi attack on their positions north of Dhubab Airport, claiming to have inflicted heavy losses in personnel and military equipment.

The latest fighting followed an announcement by the Giants Brigades on Monday that they had seized control of Dhubab Airport and several strategic positions around the Bab Al-Mandab Strait following clashes with Houthi forces.

The area has become a key battleground as government-aligned forces seek to consolidate control over Yemen's western coastline and secure positions overlooking the vital international shipping route.

The clashes are part of a broader military escalation that began in July, marking the most extensive fighting since a period of relative calm following the April 2022 truce.
