F-15 Downed in Yemen – Saudis and U.S. in Crisis

18. September 2026

In this video, investigative journalist and human rights lawyer Dimitri Lascaris examines a development in Yemen that could have implications far beyond the loss of a single fighter jet. Ansar Allah has released footage that it says shows the downing of a Saudi F-15 at a moment when Saudi forces are already facing growing military difficulties and new satellite images point to severe damage to critical oil infrastructure.

What could it mean for the course of the war if even advanced fighter aircraft become increasingly vulnerable over Yemen? Lascaris also examines developments in the Strait of Hormuz, new reports about strains on the U.S. military, and the broader question of how these developments could affect Saudi Arabia, the regional balance of power, and global oil markets.

This video was produced by Reason2Resist and published on their YouTube channel on the 16th of September, 2026. We have translated it into German and are republishing it today to help build opinion on this issue in Germany and beyond.
