External Interventions and Their Impacts on Yemen’s Crisis

Since 2011, the Arab world has witnessed the outbreak of popular revolutions that led to the fall of many ruling regimes in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and particularly the regime of Ali Abdullah Saleh in Yemen which ruled the country for more than 30 years. However, the democratization process in the country was interrupted as a result of the Iran-backed Houthi uprising in 2014, which once again dragged the country into a civil war. Thus, Yemen became an arena for regional and international conflicts, especially with the intervention of the Arab coalition led by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in March 2015. Hence, the problematic of the study stems from the treatment and analysis of the repercussions and the implications of regional and international external interventions in the Yemen crisis.
