The Houthis are an Iran-backed militant group based in Yemen that controls territory along the Red Sea. They have increasingly disrupted global maritime commerce by launching drone and projectile attacks against commercial shipping vessels. Consequently, the group has become a central focus of regional security efforts and international military campaigns aimed at countering their influence and threats.
“In Iran, they're threatening in response to the strikes in Lebanon to close off the Strait of Hmuz once more.”
“They have already warned that any Israeli presence in Somali land would be a legitimate target.”
