Expectations for the U.S. to Opt for a Ground Operation Against Yemen's Houthis

Recent reports indicate that the United States is considering the option of launching a ground operation in Yemen to confront the Houthis, amid escalating regional tensions and continued attacks targeting American and international interests.
This potential move is part of a broader strategy to deter the Houthis, who are accused of receiving military and logistical support from Iran.
According to informed sources, the ground operation could target strategic Houthi locations in areas such as Saada and Hajjah, focusing on dismantling military infrastructure and supply networks.
However, this option raises concerns about its humanitarian and political repercussions, especially given the complex situation in Yemen.
The Yemeni government has welcomed any international efforts to support the restoration of legitimacy, while analysts have warned that a ground intervention might escalate the conflict and increase civilian suffering.
On the other hand, the Houthis have threatened to expand the scope of confrontation to include regional and international targets, further complicating the scenario.
The final decision regarding this operation remains under consideration, as Washington seeks to balance protecting its interests with ensuring regional stability.
