The American Foreign Ministry classifies the Houthi group as a “terrorist organization” – the seventh day

Today, Tuesday, the US State Department announced the classification of the Houthi group, a “foreign terrorist organization”, in response to its “practices” in the region.

The statement broadcast by the American “Al -Hurra” channel stated that “the activities of the Houthis are a threat to the security of American civilians and employees in the Middle East, as well as the safety of our closest regional partners and the stability of global maritime trade,” according to the 14175 executive order issued by President Trump.

The statement indicated that since 2023 the Houthis carried out the attacks against commercial ships in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden, in addition to targeting the American forces that defend freedom of navigation and regional partners.

He pointed out that the group refrained from targeting ships that raise the Chinese flag, while targeting American and allied ships.
