Houthis' Fake Salaries Scheme Unveiled
The Houthis, supported by Iran, took control of the city of Moka and Meion Island within 36 hours along Yemen's western coast, opening a new front that threatens maritime navigation security and increasing pressures on global oil markets—especially as they strengthen their influence over the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, which connects the Red Sea to the Indian Ocean. To assist Yemeni forces, the Houthis managed to utilize exhausted troops and fictitious identities, amid the absence of effective aerial support from Saudi Arabia, which was delayed despite Yemenis' calls for help. Meanwhile, Western sources and American reports have criticized the decline in military performance and the movements of the U.S. and Saudi Arabia. The risks to global energy flows continue to rise due to the Houthis’ control of strategic positions in the Red Sea.
