Yemen Accuses Iran and Hezbollah of Commanding Houthi Attacks

Major General Ibrahim Ali Haidan stated that 14 IRGC members and seven Hezbollah operatives form a full command structure across six Houthi-controlled governorates, handling missile development, electronic warfare, and target selection for maritime attacks.

Their leader poses as a diplomat, marking Iran's shift from mere funding to direct oversight, according to the minister.

Haidan linked this to risks for seafarers and navigation through the Bab al-Mandeb Strait, urging the world to label Houthis terrorists and enforce UN arms embargoes.

Yemen's Presidential Leadership Council head echoed claims of growing IRGC involvement, though Iran and Houthis deny direct command ties.
