Geopolitical Monitor published on 19 February 2025 an analysis titled "Houthis Emerge from Red Sea Shipping Crisis Unscathed" by Paulo Aguiar.
Since the beginning of their attacks on international shipping in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden in 2023, the Houthis have steadily gained military strength and political leverage, fueled their recruitment, and increased their foothold in northern Yemen. While US, UK, and Israeli airstrikes have targeted missile launch sites, radar systems, and storage facilities, they have not significantly degraded the Houthis' fundamental military capabilities.
