The Houthis, officially known as Ansar Allah, are an Islamist political and military organization that emerged in the Saada region of northern Yemen in the 1990s. The movement is predominantly composed of Zaidi Shia Muslims and opposes the Saudi-led coalition in Yemen, as well as the United States and Israel. Their slogan, "God is the greatest, death to America, death to Israel, a curse upon the Jews, victory for Islam," reflects their ideological stance. The Houthis gained significant prominence during the Yemeni civil war, which began in 2014, when they took control of Sana'a, the capital of Yemen, and other parts of the country.
The Houthi movement's actions have had substantial regional and international implications, particularly concerning maritime security in the Red Sea and the Bab al-Mandab Strait. Their attacks on international shipping, often targeting vessels with perceived links to Israel or Western nations, have disrupted global trade and raised concerns about freedom of navigation. These actions are frequently framed by the Houthis as solidarity with Palestinians and a response to the ongoing conflict in Gaza. The United States and its allies have responded with military operations to counter these threats, further escalating tensions in the Middle East.
