"Yemen... has its finger on the trigger. The Houthis will take appropriate measures should the war against Iran continue, including any attempt to expand the war or deploy additional foreign forces."
"The Houthis are currently not just restrained, but virtually completely inactive. So far, there have been no military operations related to the conflict, only symbolic support for Iran."
"What they have to lose is greater than what they can gain. Yemen's Houthi militia prioritizes domestic strategies, experts say."
"There is much to suggest that several factors are at play. The Houthis might be deliberately holding back in order to significantly increase military pressure at a later date."
The Houthi militia has issued a warning regarding potential military action if the conflict with Iran escalates. Abdullah Sabri, a spokesman, stated that Yemen is prepared to take appropriate measures. Despite their support for Iran and readiness for military action, the Houthis have not intervened in the current war, unlike their involvement in the Gaza War. Analysts suggest their inactivity is due to a cost-benefit analysis, prioritizing domestic strategies over foreign military engagement. Factors influencing their restraint may include timing and strategic calculations for future military pressure.
