U.S. State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce announced sanctions against two individuals and five entities for their involvement in importing smuggled petroleum products, bypassing sanctions to benefit the Houthis in Yemen. According to the Americans, these parties earned personal profits of millions of dollars. Bruce said the sanctions aim to disrupt the Houthis' illegal revenue sources and are part of U.S. efforts to enhance regional security and maintain freedom of navigation in international maritime routes.
