The US Congress is witnessing moves to reinstate the Houthis as a terrorist group, following the attack launched by the putschists last week on Abu Dhabi.

On Friday, Senator Ted Cruz and a coalition of Republican foreign policy leaders introduced new legislation that would reclassify the Houthis as terrorists.

Former US President Donald Trump had included the Houthi group on the US terrorist list in early 2021, but this designation was reversed during the first week of the Joe Biden administration’s assumption of office.
