The White House has labeled the Ansar Allah movement a terrorist organization, citing Houthi activities as threats to global trade, American security, regional allies in West Asia, and contributors to global inflation.

The White House outlined the new US administration’s policy towards Yemen, emphasizing cooperation with regional partners to dismantle Houthi capabilities, operations, and resources.

Trump’s decision was influenced by a proposal from US Republican senators titled the “Dismantle Iran’s Proxy Act,” which calls for a new strategy to confront Yemen, including measures to reduce Yemen’s capabilities in the Red Sea and cut off humanitarian aid.

The US previously listed the Yemeni Ansar Allah movement as a terrorist group during Trump’s first administration. Biden also announced on January 17, 2024, that he considered the Ansar Allah movement a terrorist group, but the process was not implemented by the end of his administration.
