About This Trend

Houthis, officially known as Ansar Allah, are a Zaydi Shia Islamist political and military organization based in Yemen. They are widely believed to be backed by Iran and have been involved in significant military activities in the region.

The Houthis are currently trending due to recent escalations in military actions, including drone and missile attacks against Israel and U.S. interests. The U.S. and its allies have responded with airstrikes, and there are heightened tensions over Iran's alleged support for the group, with warnings of severe consequences for both Iran and the Houthis. .
