This is VOA News, I'm Joe Ramsey.
The US has put Yemen's Houthis back on its designated terrorist list and will pile sanctions on the Iranian-supported rebels.

They're the Biden administration's latest bid to stop Houthi attacks on the global shipping.
这是拜登政府阻止胡塞武装袭击全球航运的最新举措。
The sanctions that come with a formal terror designation are meant to keep violent extremist groups from their funding sources.
正式的恐怖主义制裁是为了断绝暴力极端主义组织的资金来源。
US officials say the sanctions will be designed to minimize harm to Yemen's people, among the world's poorest and hungriest.
美国官员表示,制裁的目的是尽量减少对也门人民的伤害,也门是世界上最贫穷、最饥饿的国家之一。
But aid groups worry the penalties will make a humanitarian crisis worse and critics say the sanctions may not even have much effect on the Houthis, a relatively isolated group with few known assets in the US that could be threatened by sanctions.
但援助组织担心,制裁将使人道主义危机恶化,批评人士表示,制裁甚至可能不会对胡塞武装产生太大影响,这是一个相对孤立的组织,在美国几乎没有已知资产,可能受到制裁的威胁。
