The session focused on the risks the Houthis present to international shipping and American interests, emphasizing the need to cooperate with the Southern Yemeni forces, which play a vital role in securing the coastlines, ports, and critical infrastructure. It highlighted the importance of on-the-ground partnerships to confront these threats, especially given the increasing danger from smuggling networks and Iranian support.
