When war returned to Gaza in 2023, the Houthis — a thousand miles away in Yemen — entered it, and fired on shipping in the Bab el-Mandeb. Most of the vessels they hit had no connection to Israel; four were sunk and at least eight sailors died. A year of US strikes followed, a terrorist designation, and fire traded with Israel. They stopped in October 2025 — when Gaza's ceasefire came, not when America bombed them. Then Iran's allies fell one by one, Iran signed a memorandum that never mentioned Yemen, and the Houthis were the last of its Axis still at war. Part 4 of 4 — told without taking a side. You decide.
