I've never been to the Abu Dhabi airport so I can't tell if that is indeed that specific airport, can anyone confirm?

Also, there are several questions:

1) Why wait a year to release the information?
2) The footage seems to be taken on cell phone cameras in pre placed locations. Does that indicate some sort of infiltration?

Yes,but this is THEIR footage of the attack,which supposedly hasnt been released before and pretty clearly shows the weapon that was used....and just how effective it was.

1) Why wait a year to release the information?

Possibly to prevent easy identification of the onsite personnel involved in the operation and the risk of their capture,airports usually have lots of hd security cameras which would no doubt have filmed all of this,if you cross referenced this footage with onsite security cameras theres probably a good chance of spotting some of the people involved and then back tracking them through the facility.However by waiting for 10 months it probably reduces the chances of this somewhat.

2) The footage seems to be taken on cell phone cameras in pre placed locations. Does that indicate some sort of infiltration?

Very likely,at a minimum you`d want to have people there onsite to record the attacks for the best potential propaganda value,not to mention any performance data that could be of value to the operators on any future missions.Theres also the possibility of having a forward air controller option either for direct control of the weapon itself or onsite personnel who can spot targets of opportunity or just provide more real time info on the target itself.

Kaboom!!!

Of course, Emirates denied the attack just like they did in the previous Houthi attacks on their territories.

Correction

According to the Houthis, this attack took place in July 2018; they just released the video this week.

I myself saw videos of taliban, ISIS , & Swat Mullah beheading people . Even Swat videos went viral they behead our policemen with chanting slogans of Allah Akhbar. Every video can't be fake.
Houthis are real people and threat for international peace. Iran , Qatar, North korea is supporting them. U.N reports.
