The Houthis threatened that if fighting between Hamas and Israel in the Gaza Strip resumed, they would resume attacking Israel and also threatened to strike American bases in the Middle East. The US administration officially added the Houthis to the list of terrorist organizations.

The pro-Iranian militias in Iraq refused the Baghdad government’s proposals to disarm and merge with the security forces.
