Yemen and the Hoothis in the Middle East

Soudi arabia formed a coalition to defend the internationally recognized yemone government. This gave the hoothis access to both military hardware and well trained personnel. Some weapon systems from the soudi arsenal may also have fallen into hoothy hands, possibly through battlefield capture. There is evidence of iran supplying limited amounts of, mainly small weapons and advisers to the hoothes. But there is little evidence for heavy weapons in the early stages of the war.
