The US State Department's Rewards for Justice (RFJ) program is offering a reward of up to $15 million for information leading to the disruption of the Houthis' financial mechanisms.

The United States on March 4 re-designated the Iran-backed group, which has carried out more than 100 attacks against commercial vessels in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden and US service members, as a terrorist organization.

The Houthis, who receive arms and training from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Quds Force (IRGC-QF), are a "highly mobile, well-armed" group, the Rewards for Justice announcement said.

They have used "technologically advanced rockets, drones and ballistic anti-ship missiles" to attack US personnel in the Middle East, US regional partners and threaten the stability of global maritime trade, it said.

The Iran-backed group has fired drones and missiles at US Navy vessels "dozens of times since 2023," endangering US men and women in uniform, it added.

Since seizing Sanaa in a September 2014 coup, the Houthis have launched multiple attacks on civilian airports in Saudi Arabia and conducted a January 2022 attack on the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

Since November 2023, the group has fired hundreds of missiles at Israel.

The Houthis also have killed civilian sailors, and their actions have forced some Red Sea maritime commercial traffic to reroute, harming global and regional economies as well as efforts to deliver humanitarian aid.

Since its inception in 1984, the RFJ program has paid out over $250 million to more than 125 people worldwide who provided actionable information that has helped resolve threats to US national security.

Information can be submitted via multiple platforms -- Signal, WhatsApp, Telegram and TOR browser as well as via the RFJ website -- in numerous languages. All tips received are read.

OK..

The Houthis transport weapons using civilian ships to smuggle weapons.

But where do I get information about them? because I am not one of them and I am not in their areas. We want to disrupt them because they are the reason for the dire situation we are in and the deterioration.

I will work hard and with vigor

Does the homeland in your eyes have a price? And would you accept a barter for the Leader, may God protect him? Are religion and its sanctities have a price? May God kill you. If it were possible, we would invade you, but the Leader's directives to do that are not issued yet.

Good

I wish you success and any information I get on any address, I will send it

We must fight the Persians and their followers because they are the root cause of the destruction of the entire Nation.

What's this madness? Whoever supports the Houthis, the cause, is allowing him to persist, grow and expand. It is not necessary to know what the source of his strength or support is, everyone knows and understands, clearly. All under the name of hegemony, living on the pain of the Arabs, the West, all of them.

O Lord God

America is the mother of terrorism. The Houthis are defending the dignity of a nation. In brief, this really explain what is happening.

O God, bestow upon me from your lawful bounty and not what you have forbidden.

The largest Houthi economic [sources] are weapons depots located in Saada province, which were looted from government bases... and also hashish warehouses located in Saada.

O God, bestow upon me from your lawful bounty

Above them above them

Ok, I accept, God willing. I hope this is real and not fake.

Receive the remittance

Al-Rawda Exchange Company, owned by Mohammed Al-Houri and Yasser Ali Al-Houri, was established by the Houthis in 2019 with the aim of imposing control over the exchange market and money transfers, in addition to facilitating the transfer and laundering of the group's funds.

The platform stated in its report that it had obtained reliable information indicating that the Houthi militia is working to enable Al-Rawda Exchange Company, under the cover of the central bank in Sana'a, to establish a unified financial network, eliminate and disable all other independent exchange networks, and force other networks and exchangers to join it in order to circumvent international sanctions.

Lies, damn you

The Houthis have caused the deaths of thousands of children and women, displacement, oppression, and the bombing of homes under their inhabitants. They have besieged cities and villages, destroyed universities and institutes, blown up mosques and Quranic schools, cut off electricity and water, stopped communications and transportation, and plundered the money of the Yemeni people and starved them to the point that they find neither food nor drink nor money nor shelter. God willing, victory is inevitably approaching.

Al Houthi is the best person

May God grant you victory over the Houthis

It's nice but I didn't receive anything

Excellent

You want, he wants, and God does what He wants.

Legitimacy

The Houthis. Terrorists. And they must be #eliminated. Iran. The Safavid Magians. May God curse you, Iran. And the Houthis.

My anger is upon you and upon every agent, mercenary, and whoever sells his homeland, his family, his honor, and his dignity.
