Political analyst Manaa Al-Matari has warned that the actions of the Houthi militia are pushing Yemen toward further escalation, division, and pose a threat to maritime security and neighboring countries. He emphasized that the Yemeni government bears significant responsibility in addressing these developments.

Speaking to Al-Ekhbariya TV, Al-Matari said the Houthis’ escalation is no longer limited to internal fronts but now extends to maritime corridors, broadening the scope of threats associated with the group.

He explained that the Yemeni government rejects the Houthis’ attempts to impose a new reality by force, as the escalation continues both within Yemen and in maritime passages.

Al-Matari added that, in his view, the Houthi militia was not established as a national project, but rather as a tool serving regional agendas, using Yemen as a platform to implement them.
