Sanctioning Houthi Leaders for Weapons Procurement and Destabilizing Violence [1]

[]

Date: 2025-03

The United States is today sanctioning seven senior members of Ansarallah, commonly known as the Houthis, for their role in smuggling weapons to Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen and negotiating weapons procurement deals. The United States is also designating a Houthi operative and his company that recruited Yemeni civilians to fight for Russia in Ukraine, generating revenue to support Houthi militant operations. This action follows the State Department’s announcement yesterday of the designation of the Houthis as a Foreign Terrorist Organization.
