Yemen Conflict Escalates as Houthi Militia Makes Sweeping Military Gains Against Government Forces

The Yemen conflict has resurfaced as the Iran-aligned Houthi group made significant military gains against the internationally recognized government, further entrenching their position and escalating tensions in the region. The development is a major setback for the internationally-backed forces, who have struggled to regain control of the country since 2015.
