Time for my monthly #Yemen UAV roundup for August 2021. As always claimed means no visual confirmation.
1st - A Qasef is downed in Rabaha district, south Marib
2nd - Houthi forces shoot down a large quadcopter described as a reconnaissance drone in Hudaydah governorate. It's actually modified to drop 120mm mortal shells.

That's it for this month. Not much out of the usual. Uptick in attacks on SA at the end of the month mirrors escalation in Marib, keeping a few F-15s away from the battlefield.
