40% : Israel has carried out multiple strikes in Yemen over the past two years in retaliation for attacks launched by the Houthis, who say their operations are in support of Palestinians in Gaza.
36% : A court controlled by Yemen's Houthi rebels has sentenced 17 people to death on charges of spying for Israel, the United States and Saudi Arabia, according to rebel media reports on Saturday.
