they're from northern yemen. they do have more of a support base there. decent e seeing now a degree of pushback. at some point even as the momentum is against the huthies now, i think at some point in the battle it will get far more difficult. laura: iran denies it but it seems like tehran is supporting the rebels. seeing the losses they made of late, do you think they've now cut off support? reporter: the amount of support they've gotten has been exaggerated. even though they've given them support and the fact you haven't seen any action by iran in yemen, the fact that you have saudi troops on the ground sort of back from response from iran is i think rather telling in this instance. the houthi is not a proxy force to iran. they are not necessary to their national security to the extent that militias in iraq are. they are not as important to iran as assad or hezbollah. so i think you sort of sealing a willingness from iran. at least from their actions so far to effectively write off yemen. laura: the united states is taking a more direct role in the war

saudis are bombing the houthis and in fact the saudis have recently this week just gone into northern yemen. do you think this fight is going to continue to escalate? because it does seem the saudi led coalition has helped the forces in the south and may help the houthis and their ally saleh backing up. >> i think what we saw the last week or so a lot of noise around a campaign by antihouthi forces, going into sanaa. and certainly the saudis would like us to believe that's a distinct possibility and that's coming soon. the issue they're having is in the south there was no support for the houthis, people fought back against them from day 1. they indiscriminately shelled areas, they have a base of support in the north and the main effect of the war is the saudi bombing campaign. >> can there be a negotiated solution, or splitting the country into north and south yemen? as the country was split at one time? >> you have plaques mallist positions. the salehs and houthis think they have enough cards in their hands to have a good deal here, to be given a chunk of power and a slice of everything el

and their support group has also come through the tribesmen of northern yemen.what we're looking at now is a situation where, you know, right now the houthis are fighting on areas that aren't their turf. the southern provinces, ta'izz, that isn't the houthi's turf. however, once you enter sana'a, and areas north of sana'a, that would mean bringing the fight to sort of the houthi's real sort of native factions, and i think that would mean a far more difficult fight. >> a lot of talk of yemen being a proxy war between saudi arabia and iran. but to what extent do you think iran does play a role in the houthi's successes and failures? >> i think at the end of the day the houthi's successes and failures are largely rooted in their own internal yemeni dynamics. that doesn't mean that there isn't some sort of ties to iran. they have received financial support and military support and political support and media support from iran. but they are an indigenous group. and their actions and ideology are very much linked to internal yemeni factors. >> thank you very much. >>>
