Yemen’s Houthis have accused the United States of intentionally destroying the country’s air defense systems during the reign of former Yemeni president the late Ali Abdullah Saleh in preparation for Saudi Arabia’s military campaign against the country that was launched in 2015. A high-ranking Houthi official has provided video to MinPress that allegedly shows U.S. officials working with military members from the former government of Abdullah Saleh to destroy stockpiles of handheld anti-aircraft systems.
