Bloomberg has given information about this deal on Thursday. In return, China and Russia have promised political support to the Shia extremist group. Bloomberg has said that there is no exact information about what kind of this assistance will be, but it may include support in international institutions such as blocking resolutions against the Houthis in the United Nations Security Council.
