Two years ago Riyadh-led coalition started carrying out airstrikes in Yemen against the rebels from Houthi movement, known as Ansar Allah (Supporters of God) at the request of Yemeni President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi as part of its Operation Decisive Storm. (source)

The war in Yemen has not exactly gone as planned. The Saudi-led coalition has killed large numbers of Houthi fighters but has also suffered significant civilian casualties of its own. After two years of brutal fighting, the Houthis are still in control of much of the country, including the capital, Sana'a. The fighting shows no signs of stopping. (source)
