Aftermath Of The Houthi Takeover In Yemen
The aftermath of the Houthi takeover in Yemen refers to developments following the Houthis' takeover of the Yemeni capital of Sana'a and dissolution of the government, which eventually led to a civil war and the Saudi Arabian-led intervention in Yemen.

However, despite their military successes and an alleged alliance with the former ruling General People's Congress, the Houthis faced widespread domestic and international opposition to the coup and they assented to United Nations–led talks on a power-sharing deal. At least one analyst went so far as to suggest the Houthis' declaration "fizzled" in the days after it was announced, although they have Ali Abdullah Saleh's polit ...

Houthi Controlled Territory Of Yemen
Houthi Yemen constitutes the areas of Yemen under the '' de facto'' governance of the Houthis, a Zaydi Shia revivalist political and military organization. Since their takeover in September 2014, the Houthis have maintained control over significant portions of northern and western Yemen, including the capital, Sanaa. Their administration operates in opposition to the internationally recognized government of Yemen. The Houthis aim to govern all of Yemen and support external movements against the United States, Israel, and Saudi Arabia. Because of the Houthis' ideological background, the conflict in Yemen is widely seen as a front of the Iran–Saudi Arabia proxy war. In September 2014, during the Yemeni civil war, Houthi insurgents ousted president Abdrabbuh Mansur Hadi from the capital, Sanaa. A Saudi Arabian-led military intervention in 2015 aimed at restoring Hadi's government, but several proto-state entities claim to govern Yemen. At least 56,000 civilians and combat ...
