In recent developments in Yemen, four separate strikes were carried out against Houthi rebels, shedding light on the escalating situation in the region. Lieutenant General Keith Kellogg, a former National Security Advisor under Vice President Mike Pence, shared his insights on the matter, emphasizing that the situation is spiraling out of control.
General Kellogg expressed his concerns about the lack of balance and control in dealing with the Houthi rebels, who he described as being sponsored by Iran. He noted that despite the minimal responses and strikes conducted against the rebels, these actions have not effectively deterred their activities. He pointed out that the recent designation of the Houthis as a specially designated terrorist group (SDGT) falls short of categorizing them as a foreign terrorist organization (FTO), thereby limiting the impact of the designation.
