The US wants to add Houthis to the list of international terrorist organizations
Kyiv • UNN
The United States is considering adding the Yemeni Houthi group to the list of international terrorist organizations because of their attacks on merchant ships in the Red Sea.
The United States may return the status of an international terrorist organization to the Houthis in connection with their attacks on merchant ships in the Red Sea. This was reported by CNN, citing its own sources, UNN reports.

In February, the United States removed the Houthis from the list of terrorist organizations, which had been included by the administration of former President Donald Trump.
At the time, it was believed that such a status would prevent the group, which controls a large part of Yemen, from providing critical assistance to the population.
