YEMENI WAR

The Yemeni war (2015-present) began between two factions claiming to constitute the Yemeni government. Houthi forces allied with forces loyal to the former president Ali Abdullah Saleh confronted forces loyal to the Saudi-backed government of Abdrabbuh Mansur Hadi. In March 2015, Houthi-Saleh forces captured Sana, the last remaining stronghold of pro-Hadi forces. Hadi fled to Saudi Arabia that responded with a large-scale invasion to Yemen in an attempt to re-establish its proxy in power. ISIS and al-Qaeda were also involved in the conflict, carrying out attacks across the country.

Again, I do not like the sudden name changes, well I want to understand the reason at least.

Why suddenly has the name Ansar Allah replaced The Houthis ?. Just asking.

That is irrelevant; Houthis for years and now all of a sudden Ansar Allah; why not call them the official name from the beginning ?.

Sorry but after the ISI -> ISIL -> ISIS – IS -> Daesh (or whichever way around), I am always questioning about name changes, but regards the Houthis, I have not yet received the answer.

Really, why does nobody care about the entire al qaeda-held area in eastern and southern yemen? At least the Saudi-led coalition of terror could clean the coastal area all the way to mukalla to link aden and mukalla.
