America’s hidden war in Yemen began as a counterterrorism campaign against al-Qaeda. Twenty-five years later, U.S. forces are tied into a much bigger fight involving Houthi missiles, Iranian weapons, covert raids, shipping lanes, and the Bab el-Mandeb. Using declassified documents, leaked cables, court records, and military investigations, this episode traces how America’s secret Yemen war expanded far beyond its original mission across the Middle East.
