European Parliament urges Houthi terror designation
The European Parliament today, Thursday, called for the designation of the Houthi militia as a terrorist organization, emphasizing the need to include both the military and political wings of the militia, along with dismantling its funding channels, freezing its funds, and seizing its economic resources. This came in response to the Houthi escalation through missile and drone attacks on Saudi Arabia, which they considered serious violations of international law. The Parliament also condemned Iran's destabilizing role and its support for the Houthis with arms and technology, urging the disarmament of armed groups and the disbandment of their members to achieve lasting stability in the region. Additionally, it called for improved security cooperation with Gulf countries and the enhancement of European naval operations to counter the militia's threats in the Red Sea and Bab el-Mandeb Strait, amid concerns over the deteriorating humanitarian conditions in Yemen resulting from ongoing fighting.
