The Houthi rebels in Yemen are becoming a more and more dangerous force in the Middle East.

They act together with Iran and other allied armed groups.

They have attacked Israel, Saudi Arabia, and world shipping routes.

The Houthis have been at war with Yemen's internationally recognized government since 2014.

Saudi Arabia joined the war on the government's side the next year.

The 2022 ceasefire stopped most of the fighting.

But after Hamas's attack on October 7, 2023, the Houthis focused on attacking Israel and Red Sea shipping.

US airstrikes in early 2025 reduced the attacks.

However, in July the Houthis started attacking Saudi Arabia again.

They declared a blockade of the oil-rich country.

This also matches Iran's goal of gaining power against the US.

The Houthis belong to the Zaydi branch, a Shia minority group.

Their official slogan shows hostility toward the United States and Israel.

The blockade led by Saudi Arabia has isolated areas controlled by the Houthis.

The Houthis are a group that belongs to Iran's 'axis of resistance.'

After the Gaza war, they started missile and drone attacks on Israel.

Between November 2023 and December 2024, more than 100 merchant ships were attacked.
