Engineer detained in US over Houthis support
The U.S. Department of Justice has arrested an electrical engineer working at the Department of Energy on charges of providing support to the Houthi movement in Yemen. This support includes purchasing materials for making explosives and drones, as well as traveling to Yemen. The federal office stated that he traveled to Yemen last September and attempted to reach Sanaa to establish governmental-level contacts, but was unable to do so. He has been charged with providing material support to the Houthi group, which is listed as a foreign terrorist organization, and faces legal penalties as a result.
