the claim

The US State Department designated the Houthis (Ansar Allah) as a Foreign Terrorist Organization in 2025.

the verdict
CONTESTED PARTIAL
Recorded sources
1 source for · 1 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that the US State Department designated the Houthis (Ansar Allah) as a Foreign Terrorist Organization in 2025?

Partly. One reference work states the Houthis were designated a Foreign Terrorist Organization in 2025, while another reference work dates the State Department FTO listing to 13 January 2014. Neither item fully settles the 2025 designation question, and they point in opposite directions.
