HOUTHIS REPORTEDLY SEIZE U.S.-SUPPLIED MILITARY VEHICLES WORTH MORE THAN $500 MILLION
Iran-backed Houthi forces have reportedly taken control of U.S.-supplied military vehicles worth more than $500 million that were provided to Yemen’s government forces during the civil war.
The equipment was reportedly supplied through Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates as part of efforts to support Yemen’s government forces against the Houthis.
The reported seizure highlights the risk of advanced U.S.-supplied equipment falling into the hands of Houthi forces amid renewed fighting in Yemen.
