    “Yemeni people” probably means Houthi-aligned people, I guess?

      If you knew anything about Yemen in 2024, you’d know that their position towards Israel is supported by virtually the entire population, including opponents of the Houthis. The population knows what it’s like to be starved and bombarded by US weapons.

      Given that Ansarallah governs over 80% of the Yemeni population with popular support from the people, yeah ig?

      It means all of the country except for one city that made peace with the now government.

      That’s what happens when people win revolutions, even after an attempted genocide through forced starvation. They become the government.

      Also, Houthi aligned makes you sound ignorant.

      It’d be like calling Democrats ‘Kennedy aligned’, if you ignored RFK junior.

        They are well-known as al-Ḥūṯiyyūn, but you’re right, I should call them Ansar Allah.
