The Houthis have recently become the focal point of the Middle East and have become a major factor in the war with Israel.
Hamas was bogged down, and the Houthis quickly stepped in and launched a defenseless strike against Israel.
According to the Global Times, the Houthis have announced that if food and medicine cannot be delivered to the Gaza Strip, any ships heading for Israel will become a "legitimate target" for their armed forces.
Recently, the Houthis have carried out missile and drone strikes on US and Israeli targets, making them an undesirable danger factor in the Middle East. Although Western countries believe that the Houthis are supporting Hamas, this is not surprising, as they see the two concepts as closely related.
In addition to the Houthis, there is Allah. Some Arab countries initially raised threats against Israel, but now the people on the field silently watched the area turn into rubble, and no one dared to say a word. At the same time, the Houthis are actively involved and have taken advantage of Yemen's strategic location to strike precisely at Israel's vital points.
They are close to the busy shipping lanes of the Red Sea, yet maintain a fairly safe distance from Israel and act independently, and no one dares to intervene. In recent years, Israel's Mossad has not been unfounded in its belief that a future war could take place on several fronts orchestrated by Iran.
Iran's resistance front includes Hamas in Gaza, Allah in Lebanon, the Houthis in Yemen, and guerrillas in Iraq and Syria. While the actions of the so-called Palestinian allies so far have been akin to mosquito bites, the Houthis have drones and missiles, which makes them more likely to inflict great harm on Israel.
In the long run, Yemen's Houthis may pose a greater threat to Israel than Hamas or even Allah.
According to the New York Times, Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps is providing intelligence to the Houthis to make it easier to identify Israeli vessels in regional waters.
Western military analysts believe that the Houthis are the most critical potential risk. This force may not be as strong as Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps, but it is full of inadversity.
The Houthis have become a key player in the Middle East, and their influence is rapidly expanding.
Recently, the Houthis sent drones to the USS Carney destroyer of the US Sixth Fleet, and although the drones were shot down, the move was seen as a success. This shows the courage and determination of the Houthis.
Near the entrance to the Red Sea, the United States shot down a Houthi drone, while the Houthis fired a series of missiles at the Israeli port of Eilat. In addition, there were pirate attacks on the Red Sea, which further aggravated the tension.
As a result of these events, the United States has sent special envoys to the Persian Gulf region to discuss with allies the issue of ensuring security in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. At the same time, Israel, in cooperation with the UAE, Bahrain and other countries, closely monitors the activities of the Houthis and is ready to take the necessary actions.
Some Western countries are beginning to seriously consider military action to curb the activities of the Houthis. Although the United States has initially set some important goals, it is reluctant to be the initiator of the escalation of the conflict for the time being.
While Israel's air and missile defense systems are quite reliable and can respond to the threat posed by the Houthis, the threat posed to international shipping still raises concerns in the international community.
The Houthis threatened to close the Red Sea entrance and carry out drone and missile strikes on all ships in response to any attack on Yemen. The threat underscores the escalation of tensions and demonstrates the Houthis' hardline stance.
The waters of our land will become a graveyard for the ships of the Zionist enemy!
