The United Nations Security Council votes in favor of a resolution demanding the Houthi militia’s withdrawal from Yemeni government institutions, during a meeting of the Council at the U.N. headquarters in New York, February 15, 2015. The United Nations Security Council on Sunday demanded Iranian-backed Houthi militia in Yemen withdraw from government institutions, called for an end to foreign interference and threatened “further steps” if the violence does not stop. The United Nations has warned that Yemen is collapsing. Shi’ite Muslim Houthi fighters have sidelined the central government after seizing the capital Sanaa in September and expanding across Yemen.
