Houthi commander admits: Iran training us

Al Arabiya , 15 January 2017 – A Houthi militia leader has confessed that both Iran and Hezbollah have been heavily involved in training their fighters.
Abu Mohammed, who was in charge of rocket attacks in the al-Nihm district in Yemen, made the confession after surrendering.
He said that there were Iranian experts and Lebanese from Hezbollah militias currently in Saada helping run secret training facilities.
The confession comes a month after a report by independent research group Conflict Armament Research (CAR) suggested that there are arms “pipeline” that extends from Iran and Yemen.
Iran’s Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA) last year admitted that missiles made in Tehran were recently used in Yemen by Houthi militias in cross-border attacks against Saudi Arabia.
The Zelzal-3 rockets are Iranian-made solid propellant missiles that have been known to be used by Iranian, Syrian and Hezbollah forces
