US threatens sanctions on any nation or entity that assists Yemen’s Houthis

The United States says it will pursue sanctions against any country, group or person that provides fuel, war material or other resources to Yemen’s Houthi rebels.

Last week, Trump announced that the US would halt its strikes on the Houthis, an Iran-backed rebel group that agreed to stop its attacks on American vessels in the Red Sea.

Acting US Ambassador Dorothy Shea tells a UN Security Council meeting that Iran has enabled Houthi attacks “with military, logistical and intelligence support.”

“This council must not tolerate Iranian defiance of its resolutions and should impose consequences on sanctions violators using the tools at its disposal,” she says.
