Apart from its ongoing genocide in Gaza, Israel has, this week, attacked Syria, Lebanon, Tunisia and, most shockingly, Qatar—a staunch US ally. But in Yemen, it's been especially brutal.

Amid growing fears that the Middle East and the world are forgetting about a long-running war in the splintered country, a particular solution is gaining steam as popular protests break out

Far from being a technicality, the militia that controls much of Yemen's west and north is using the rial and the physical expression of money to alter the state's identity.

US President Donald Trump agreed a ceasefire in early May on the condition that the Houthis do not attack American ships. Good to their word, they are still attacking others, with no comeuppance.

The Yemeni militant group is proving to be a stubborn adversary, and Trump doesn't want anything to detract from his visit to the Gulf next week, where he plans to make a 'big' announcement

An informed Yemeni military source says a US-backed Yemeni government assault is likely to begin "between mid and late May" after US air strikes have crippled key Houthi military assets

Tehran has long sponsored the Houthis in Yemen, which is the last member of Iran's 'axis of resistance' still standing up to Israel. Neither fully trust each other and never have.

Were recent strikes ordered by Trump intended as a warning to Tehran, or could they be a prelude to an expanded war? Al Majalla weighs in on the possible motives.

Legal classifications will only go so far and may end up hurting more than just the militia. The move could complicate efforts to reach a much-needed political solution in Yemen.
