X (Twitter) has suspended the accounts of two senior officials from the Houthi organization. The suspended individuals are Yahya Saree, the military spokesperson for the Houthis, and Mohammed al-Bukhaiti, a prominent political official known for his hardline stance and significant media presence.

This action by X comes amid ongoing scrutiny of social media platforms regarding their policies on accounts associated with organizations labeled as terrorist entities. The suspension of these accounts highlights the platform"s efforts to regulate content related to such groups.
