Amid renewed tensions in the Middle East, Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthis threatened to resume attacks on Israel following alleged ceasefire violations. After pausing their Red Sea operations, the group is now targeting U.S. and Israeli goods through a wide-ranging boycott campaign. The group is also turning inward, conducting mass arrests and a sweeping internal crackdown on suspected “spies. The Houthis released footage showing military drills and training graduations. Reports say the rebels detained their own Political Council Secretary, accusing him of espionage and foreign ties. The move comes amid mass arrests, including at least 59 UN employees, as the group purges suspected “spies” and dissenters.
