Politics of Yemen is in an uncertain state due to a
2014–15 coup d'état. An armed group known as the
Houthis or Ansar Allah seized control of the Yemeni government and announced it would dissolve
parliament, as well as install a "presidential council", "transitional national council", and "supreme revolutionary council" to govern the country for an interim period. However, the deposed president,
Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, has declared he is still in office and is working to establish a rival government in
Aden.
