On October 14, Yemeni Foreign Minister Zubaidi confirmed to AFP that the Yemeni government has approached Beijing over allegations that Houthi forces used Chinese components to manufacture weapons; the weapons investigation organization CAR disclosed that among the seized cargo were custom parts corresponding to Iranian ballistic missiles, and the shipping documents listed a Chinese supplier, but the tracing has not yet been verified, and the existing materials are insufficient to prove the involvement of the Chinese government in supplying weapons.
