U.S. intelligence agencies have concluded that Russia is considering providing the Houthi rebels with more advanced weaponry, potentially escalating conflicts related to shipping disruptions.
Despite ongoing negotiations between Russia and the Houthis for missile supplies, American officials state that such a deal has yet to be finalized.
The strategic partnership between Russia and Houthi rebels is viewed as a method for Russia to project influence and disrupt international maritime activities.
Increased Houthi attacks in the Red Sea have significantly impacted global shipping costs and have necessitated a heightened U.S. naval presence in the region.
