National Resistance says it downed a drone on the al-Zuraiqa front
National Resistance military media published a statement saying the 24th Infantry Brigade, also known as the Seventh Republican Guards Brigade, downed a Houthi attack drone on the al-Zuraiqa front on Friday evening. It said the aircraft had been flying over military positions after fighting in the area. Publication falls within the window, but the time of the alleged downing was not specified and the account has not been independently verified; Tihama 24’s repetition is not independent corroboration.
