The Iranian-supported Houthi Movement, officially known as Ansar Allah, is a political and armed group based in Yemen. It emerged in the 1990s and has been involved in a protracted conflict against the Yemeni government, particularly since 2014 when they seized the capital, Sana'a. The group is known for its opposition to Saudi Arabia and the United States, and it has received military and logistical support from Iran, which has led to significant regional tensions. The Houthis have been implicated in various attacks on Saudi interests, particularly in the context of the ongoing civil war in Yemen and the broader geopolitical struggle in the Middle East.
