The United States announced on Tuesday it had confirmed the Houthis have been using the same Iranian drones, among other Tehran-supplied weapons, as the ones they previously provided to Russia for use in Ukraine.
The Defense Intelligence Agency confirmed in a newly released report that the Iranians have provided the Houthis with various one-way unmanned aerial vehicles, different medium-range ballistic missiles, land-attack cruise missiles, and surface-to-air missiles. The agency was able to compare public photos shared by the Houthis of their arsenal to similar ones published by Iran to confirm the weapons are the same despite being renamed.
