French gendarmes (seen rear) use teargas to clear an area near the Crem’Arbre “Zone to be Defended” (ZAD) camp of protesters and activists against the A69 motorway project between Toulouse and Castres, in Saix, southwestern France, on February 11, 2024. French gendarmes conducted an intervention on February 9, to clear an area near the planned motorway after activists had set up camp toilets and signposts on private land where they planned to create a so-called “zone to be defended” (ZAD) camp dubbed “Crem’Arbre”. Police cleared pallets and trolleys used to block a small road running alongside the field, which is close to the route of the planned A69 motorway linking Toulouse and the town of Castres. On February 10, they fired tear gas at the activists but didn’t penetrate into the ZAD itself, which is on private land and not infringing any laws. (Photo by Valentine CHAPUIS / AFP)

Houthi troopers ride on the back of a pick-up vehicle while on patrol in Sana’a, Yemen, 10 February 2024. The US designation of the Houthis as a terrorist group will take effect on 16 February, if the militia does not stop its strikes on ships in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden, according to a statement by US ambassador to Yemen Steven Fagin. In January 2024, the US Department of State designated Yemen’s Houthis as a ‘Specially Designated Global Terrorist group’ due to their increased attacks on shipping lanes. In December 2023, the US Department of Defense announced a multinational operation to safeguard trade and protect ships in the Red Sea in response to the escalation of Houthi attacks.
