Original Note:
1) The Houthis control the capital Sana'a and most of the populated areas of Yemen except for the city of Aden. They are the de facto government. 2) There is no mention in any news story that the rump government of Yemen approved the air strikes, or was even consulted. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/1/12/how-the-us-uk-bombing-of-yemen-might-help-the-houthis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yemeni_civil_war_(2014%E2%80%93present)
