Aden _ In a bold move, Yemen's Houthi authorities have declared a nationwide ban on all U.S.-made products, citing political and economic grievances. The decision, announced by the Houthi-aligned Supreme Political Council, is seen as a response to escalating tensions with the United States, including recent sanctions and accusations of arms smuggling.

The ban is expected to impact various sectors, including technology, food, and consumer goods, as the Houthis aim to reduce dependency on American imports. Critics argue that the move could further isolate Yemen's economy, which is already struggling due to years of conflict and humanitarian crises.
