Revealing the Yemeni Civil War The rise of the Houthis has been full of twists and turns!
The history of Yemen is always turbulent, like an unsolvable mystery. Today, we delve into Yemen's civil war and the rise of the Houthis, not just a war of blood and fire, but part of the situation in the Middle East.
The prelude to the Yemeni civil war begins with the 926 Revolution of 1962. That year, the pro-Western monarchy was overthrown and the Yemeni Arab Republic was born. However, the republic did not usher in long-term stability, and political divisions and tribal contradictions emerged one after another. In 1963, the Houthi family from the north was dissatisfied with their position in the province and began to organize armed operations in Amran province. The Houthi armed forces started out small, but they grew from strength to strength thanks to their deep influence in northern Yemen. In 1978, Hussein Houthi founded the Young Believers, marking the emergence of the Houthis as an organized group with clear political aspirations.
This makes one wonder why Yemen's fate has always been so bumpyIn the 90s of the 20th century, Yemen's internal political situation continued to be turbulent. In 1990, South Yemen declared independence and established the People's Democratic Republic of Yemen, which further exacerbated the internal conflict and confrontation in Yemen. The Houthis seized the opportunity to rapidly expand their sphere of influence and began to seek to dominate Yemen's domestic political landscape.
In 2000, Yemen reached a turning point. At that time, Yemen's ** Saleh supported the US counter-terrorism operation in the Arabian Peninsula, which made the domestic *** forces begin to rally around the Houthis to fight against the ** army. The Houthis have taken this opportunity to grow rapidly and become a political force to be reckoned with.
To tell the truth, the people of Yemen have endured the torment of war, and the pain and suffering are indescribable. Yemen is located at the throat of the Red Sea, and the rise of the Houthis has made the country an important link in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Recently, there has been news that the Houthis, in order to support their Palestinian brothers, have made a name for themselves by blocking the Red Sea and striking Israeli-linked ships with missiles and drones.
Some netizens commented: "This is simply a catastrophe in the Middle East, what is it that has plunged this country into such an abyss?!."It is comments like these that make people think more deeply about the causes and development of the civil war in Yemen.
Fast forward to 2011, when the Arab Spring swept across the Middle East, and the situation in Yemen deteriorated further. As the conflict between Saleh** and the Houthis escalated, a full-scale civil war broke out. In September 2014, the Houthis seized the Yemeni capital, Sana'a, and subsequently took control of most of Yemen. Although the international community has called on the two sides to resolve their differences through negotiations, the conflict between the Houthis and the Yemeni army** continues.
This is not an ordinary civil war, but an important part of the regional and even international landscape. This is an analyst's comment on the civil war in Yemen.
Recently, the Houthis suddenly announced that they had reached a ceasefire agreement with the Yemeni army, and their brothers turned their hostilities into peace and relieved their worries. They seem to be going all out to deal with the US-led Red Sea escort alliance, a move that has shaken the US and the West. With the reconciliation of the two sides of the civil war, Yemen is expected to usher in rare peace and tranquility.
This ceasefire is a ray of hope that the people of Yemen can finally have peace!This is a message from a netizen from Yemen.
In general, there are too many stories behind the civil war in Yemen, and there are too many innocent people who have lost loved ones and been displaced in this war. The rise of the Houthis is not only the precipitation of history, but also a geopolitical wrestling. Hopefully, at the dawn of a ceasefire, the Yemeni people will be able to emerge from their predicament and usher in a day of peace. This may be a bright spot in the situation in the Middle East, and it is also what we are all looking forward to.
