Nearly five years into the fierce war in Yemen, signs of an end to the fighting have emerged. It seems an international desire for peace in Yemen has been gaining strength, including in the United States. This comes after voices were raised in several European countries, including Germany, for a halt to weapons exports to Saudi Arabia; this is not to mention similar efforts in the US Congress.
Meanwhile, the Houthi movement’s weapons have enabled it to achieve deterrence; the Houthis claimed responsibility for the bombing of Aramco Oil Co. in September in Saudi Arabia and has claimed to have downed drones, including US ones.
