Yemen’s Houthis and Iran: How deep is their alliance?

Yemen’s Houthi movement has expanded its reach along the western coast, striking Saudi energy infrastructure while Riyadh responds with airstrikes. Analysts say the group, rooted in a 1990s Zaydi revival, shares ties with Iran but retains independent Yemeni origins. UN experts have documented support from Iran’s Revolutionary Guards and Hezbollah, though Tehran denies arming the Houthis. Control over Hodeidah and key waterways like Bab al-Mandeb underscores the wider regional and global trade stakes at play. Al Jazeera’s Ali Hashem reports. Subscribe to our channel: bit.ly
