1> The Houthis are NOT a terrorist organization (as popularly known and conceived) they are a BARBARIAN society -- pirates, in fact.
Traditionally, the Houthis primary source of income has always been piracy. It took Western powers ( Britain ) to stop them. The Royal Navy turned Aden into their primary naval base for the whole Indo-Pacific for many, many years as a consequence.
2> The Egyptians are NEVER going to allow Russian military goods to pass the Suez Canal. They HATE the Houthis as much as the Saudis. The Houthis have dropped canal fee income by $7,000,000,000 last year. This has become a budget nightmare for Cairo. Naturally, they have been yelping at Washington all through 2024 for the US to eliminate the Houthis -- especially their interdiction assets. Jake Sullivan-the-wise /s has kicked them to the curb, per his own doctrine: No-Can-Do. (cf Israel, Ukraine, Finland, Estonia)
