After months of Houthi terrorist attacks from Yemen against Israel, the group has gone almost completely silent in recent weeks, with only a few exceptions.
According to sources close to the Houthi terrorist organization, the main reason is simple: Iran has reportedly stopped transferring money to them for about six months.
For the Houthis, the calculation is not ideological alone. If the money does not arrive, they have far less motivation to continue helping Iran’s regional war effort against Israel.
The same sources say the Houthis are also deeply worried about the United States. They remember the heavy American-Israeli strikes in Yemen and fear that another operation could “finish the job.” This fear has become a major factor in their current restraint.
