    Apparently they move in areas where there is no presence of Houthis, South Transitional Government or Yemeni Government and they effectively take the responsibility of governance. A few years back, there were videos of Al-Qaeda in Yemen fixing pipes, roofs and other infrastructure while everyone was busy fighting each other. They themselves apparently are content to avoid fighting if they can.

    The only solution to the civil war in Yemen and for the sake of peace is to go back to 2 separate states as was the case before unification in 1990. The issue was a poor unification process between North & South Yemen, that was rushed by the so called leaders at the time without due diligence. They did not bother to study the unification process, the cultural difference between the 2 countries. North was running on tribal law where as the South was running on civil law. Completely opposite sides of the same coin. Any one who thinks otherwise is miffed. The Southerners are awaiting a referendum to choose whether to remain united or to cease from the North.

    @KingsandGenerals, What you failed to mention in the video is...... Ali Salem AlBeid lost the battle because Ali Saleh and his Northern entourage included Southerners who were in Key government posts. Like AbduRabu Mansour Hadi who was an Army General at the time. The reason some of the Southerners helped Ali Saleh was because of the 1986 civil war in South Yemen (before unification) and, there was deep animosity between the Southerners. So, it was pay back time.

    The work that goes into these videos is immense but I'm surprised more people don't talk about how dense the information given is. At times it's just an overwhelming amount of information told at a breakneck speed and I think it would really benefit to try summarise events a bit sharper. Is it particularly necessary to indulge in the minutia of every single event leading up to the focus of a conflict? Generally it doesn't seem to aid in helping contextualise the overarching topic. It feels a lot like a wikipedia sprawl at times more than it does a visual documentary.

    By attacking shipping, the Houthi are sending a signal to other factions, and to all Yemenis, that the Houthi are the most legitimate faction now fighting for dominance in Yemen, IMHO. Also their cause now has worldwide attention and renewed respect within the Muslim world, I imagine. This terrific video by Kings and Generals has put the shipping attacks in perspective. The Houthi are in the middle of a protracted civil war and they've seized the situation in Gaza as an opportunity. Disrupting global trade is a side effect of what they really want, and they'll continue to attack shipping until the costs of this strategy outweigh the benefits.

    Sending a signal to their own people in the north that they are legitimate, the southern Yemenis knows their games and their media is working on it, as for the Muslim world, the Houthies are trying to clean their names after all the deaths they caused and still cause in Yemen (look at the blockade on Taizz) the southerners will never forget nor forgive, only fools who love the talks of the houthies ofc they will see them as braves even tho they are fools and everyone knows about their charades. They are ruining Egypt and the Suez canal meanwhile not harming Israel not even a little bit as their port on the Mediterranean where their imports come in from Turkey and European countries. The more harm they do to the shipping lanes the expensive material become and the more harm they cause to Muslim countries. Smart people will realise this, only fools will love it.

    There's a kingdom that very important in ancient far east, but rarely mentioned. This kingdom is the birthplace of incense and already making trade relation with mediteranean civilization since the first millenia BC. This kingdom also the reason why ocean silk road exist How about making documentary about Barus Kingdom which known in the past as the most important trading port of the far east It is located in west coast of north sumatra province, Indonesia. Exist since 1st millenia BC and colapsed in 1945 AD after united with indonesia No one knows when this kingdom created. But judging that incense already traded around mediterania since 1st millenia and incence is resin of a tree that native and endemic to north sumatra, and this kingdom already famous among middle east merchant in 2nd and 1st century bc, it is safe to say that this kingdom already exist since 1st millenia or between 2nd century bc to the 1st millenia bc
