The Houthis are ready to send troops to Gaza?

Autumn and Winter Check-in Challenge Israel has been bombarding Gaza for more than two months and blocking humanitarian relief supplies. Gaza has experienced a severe disaster, but the condemnation and pressure of the United Nations have not had any effect, and supplies are still not delivered. The bombardment continues, but Yemen's Houthis have unexpectedly stepped forward. The Houthis attacked Israeli merchant ships and foreign merchant ships bound for Israel, even when the U.S. fleet escorted them.

The Houthis have dealt a heavy blow to Israel's economy and made it difficult for the United States to ride the tiger. The Houthis stated that all members of the convoy would be targeted. At present, a general mobilization is underway in northern Yemen to prepare for the deployment of armed personnel to the Gaza Strip, and training camps have been set up to prepare for intervention in the Gaza conflict. Tens of thousands of young people have volunteered to participate in the training camps.

Yemen's Houthi rebels have warned the United States against escalating the situation and urged countries not to participate in the US-led escort coalition. At present, not a single Middle Eastern country has joined the escort group, and only France and Britain have actually sent ships to the Red Sea, and even Australia, which often stirs up peace, has refused to participate.

Yemen's Houthi spokesman Yahya Saray called on Arab countries not to participate in the fighting between them and the United States and Israel, let alone have economic dealings with them. The Houthis are a long way from Gaza, passing through Saudi Arabia and Egypt.

How did the Houthis enter Gaza to fight?Saudi Arabia and Yemen's Houthis have been fighting for years, and negotiations for a permanent ceasefire have just begun. Before the new round of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the United States was still trying to promote the establishment of diplomatic relations between Saudi Arabia and Israel, so it was impossible to allow the Houthis to cross the border. Egypt is even more afraid of being involved in the war, resulting in a large influx of refugees into the country, affecting its own shipping fees. Therefore, there is certainly no desire for the conflict to expand.

Another route is north, from the Gulf of Aden to Iran, passing through Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon. The road is far and safe. There is no shortage of advanced aircraft and artillery in Arab countries, but it is the Houthis who can really help the Palestinians. Yemen's Houthi military parade proved that he is a strong and battle-hardened team, which is the main reason why the United States is afraid.
