Houthi Red Sea / Israel attacks

Beginning November 19, 2023, Yemen's Houthis began attacking commercial vessels in the Red Sea and launching missiles and drones at Israel, framed as solidarity with Gaza during the Israel–Hamas war. The campaign disrupted one of the world's busiest shipping lanes, forcing rerouting around Africa and drawing U.S. and allied naval responses.

Two separate pauses are worth distinguishing from the active campaign itself:

• The U.S.–Houthi bilateral truce (May 6, 2025), brokered by Oman, paused direct U.S.–Houthi hostilities but explicitly did not cover Houthi attacks on Israel or other shipping — see that separate entry.
• A broader Houthi lull followed the October 2025 Gaza ceasefire; per Wikipedia's Red Sea crisis tracking, the Houthis halted attacks on international shipping and on Israel after the Gaza peace plan took effect around October 10, 2025.

That lull ended when the Houthis announced on February 28, 2026 that they would resume attacks, and by March 28, 2026 they had renewed strikes on Israel. There is no negotiated ceasefire covering this theater — only unilateral Houthi pauses and resumptions tied to the Gaza situation. That is why this entry is tagged violated: the de-escalation broke down with no successor arrangement. Status as of July 2026.

There is no negotiated ceasefire text covering the Houthi Red Sea/Israel campaign. The Houthis have unilaterally paused and resumed attacks in stated linkage to the Gaza situation. This 'terms' field is intentionally minimal because no agreement exists to enumerate.
