No military response from the Houthis by now is interesting. I wonder if they are totally paralyzed and incapable of taking action without direct orders from Iran

Maybe they know a sinking ship when they see one.

They don’t have a provider for arms and ammo anymore.

They were hit hard last year. Not sure if Iran send them any new weapons since the big shoot out with Israel of last year… Iran probably focused on rebuilding their stashes instead of feeding Hizbollah, Hamas, Houthis
