Today, the United States will punish seven senior Ansar Allah members, known as the Houthis, for their role in smuggling weapons into the Houthi -controlled Yemeni regions and negotiating arms purchase deals. The United States is also appointing a Houthi agent and his company that recruited Yemeni civilians to fight for Russia in Ukraine, which led to revenues to support the Houthi operations. This procedure follows the Ministry of Foreign Affairs yesterday that the Houthis are appointed as a foreign terrorist organization.

We will use all the tools available to counter Houthi violence and work with the internationally recognized government of Yemen to eliminate the Houthi capabilities.

The US government is committed to the Houthis accountable for obtaining weapons and weapons components from suppliers in Russia, China and Iran to threaten the security of the Red Sea.

Today, according to the executive order of the anti -benefit body (EO) 13224, in its amended form, it depends on the previous procedures targeting customers and suppliers of Houthi weapons.
