Israel seeks global consensus on designating Houthis as terrorists after drone and missile strikes

Israel has instructed its diplomatic missions in Europe to try to get the Iran-backed Houthi rebel group in Yemen designated as a terrorist organisation A Houthi fighter mans a machine gun mounted on a truck during a parade for people who attended Houthi military training as part of a mobilisation campaign, in Sanaa, Yemen December 18, 2024. Reuters File Israel has directed its diplomatic missions in Europe to push for the designation of the Iran-backed Houthi rebel group in Yemen as a terrorist organisation. The first and most basic thing to do is to designate them as a terrorist organisation,” Reuters quoted Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar as saying in a statement. Sa’ar said he has written to the president of the UN Security Council and asked for an emergency session to be convened to “condemn the Houthis’ attacks and Iran’s ongoing support for them.” The United States, Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, the United Arab Emirates, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and Israel currently designate the Houthis as terrorists, according to Sa’ar.
