UN Panel Finds Further Evidence of Iran Link to Yemen Missiles
(AFP) Yemen's Houthi rebels are still arming themselves with ballistic missiles and drones that "show characteristics similar" to Iranian-made weapons, a report to the UN Security Council by a panel of experts has found. The panel said it "continues to believe" that short-range ballistic missiles and other weaponry were transferred from Iran to Yemen after an arms embargo was imposed in 2015, and that there was a "high probability" that the missiles were manufactured outside of Yemen.
