Yemen Urges Int’l Pressure to Dry Sources of Houthi Funding, Weapons
The Yemeni government is seeking to elevate its coordination with the United Kingdom beyond political and diplomatic support, pushing for more impactful measures to confront the terrorist Houthi militia. These proposed actions include designating the group as a terrorist organization, choking off its financial and armament supply lines, and tightening restrictions on the dual-use technologies and components used to develop its military capabilities. This diplomatic push coincides with anticipated international efforts to mobilize economic and humanitarian assistance for Yemen.
