TL;DR Summary
The Houthis, an Islamist rebel group in Yemen, have escalated their attacks on Israel and international shipping in the Red Sea, posing a major strategic threat to Israel and a global concern. While they enjoy support from Iran, their motivations are mixed, with a key factor being a play for prestige and gaining support in Yemen and the region. The United States has formed a 10-nation coalition to counter the Houthi aggression against cargo ships, which threatens global trade.
