[PRESSTV] Yemen’s Houthi
...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth . Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The Yemeni government has accused the Houthis of having ties to the Iranian government, which wouldn't suprise most of us. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to America™, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews ...

(UN)-led ceasefire monitoring team in the war-ravaged country’s flashpoint city of Hudaydah, accusing the head of the team of pursuing "other agendas."
Houthis’ chief negotiator, Mohammed Abdulsalam, made the remarks on Twitter on Sunday, saying that retired Dutch Major General Patrick Cammaert, who was to chair the meeting, had "exited from the course of the agreement by implementing other agendas."
"It seems that the task is greater than his capabilities," he further said, referring to the Dutch general.
Cammaert is leading a UN joint committee tasked with overseeing a truce in the western city, a lifeline for the delivery of desperately needed humanitarian aid .
In December, Yemen’s Houthi Ansarullah movement and the country’s former Saudi-backed government signed an agreement for a ceasefire in Hudaydah during UN-brokered peace talks held in the Swedish capital of Stockholm. Martin Griffiths, the UN special envoy for Yemen, mediated the negotiations.
According to the agreement, the Houthi fighters, who are in control of Hudaydah, and Yemen’s former president Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi’s armed militia together Saudi-led forces ‐ who have placed the city under a tight siege since June ‐ must withdraw from the port and hand it over to UN observers.
"If Griffiths does not address the issue, it is going to be difficult to discuss any other matter," Abdulsalam added, without elaborating.
According to the UN, the fragile ceasefire has largely held since it came into force on December 2018, but there have been delays in the agreed withdrawal of the Houthis and Hadi’s forces.
The limited ceasefire and withdrawal, if implemented, could offer a potential breakthrough in a nearly four-year Saudi-led war that has brought Yemen
