A Houthi attack on a training camp in southern Yemen killed more than 70 people and injured 200 others, according to an India Global Review video summary published on October 20. The summary does not identify the camp or give the attack's date.

The Iran-backed group also claimed strikes on the Saudi cities of Riyadh, Abha and Yanbu. The report attributes the postponement of Saudi Arabia's flagship investment summit, commonly called “Davos in the Desert”, to those attacks.

The summary provides no corroborating evidence for the claimed strikes or an official Saudi statement confirming the postponement and its cause. Those claims, and the reported casualty figures, have not been independently verified by BharatVox.
