Overview
President Trump has signed an executive order re-designating the Houthi rebels in Yemen as a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO), reversing a previous decision by the Biden administration. Trump's move is a response to increasing aggression from the Houthis, who have engaged in numerous attacks on U.S. Navy vessels and commercial shipping in the Red Sea. The order highlights the Houthis' support from Iran and emphasizes the need for stronger U.S. and regional partner cooperation to counter their activities, while also directing a review of U.S. aid dealings with organizations that interact with the Houthis.
