<p>On Thursday (Nov&nbsp;7), the group's leader&nbsp;Abdul-Malik al-Houthi said that a series of normalisation deals between Arab countries and Israel brokered by the first Trump administration (which was in power in the US from 2017 to 2021)&nbsp;did not help bring the conflict closer to an end.</p>

<p>"Trump failed in the project of... 'the deal of the century' despite all his arrogance, haughtiness, recklessness and tyranny, and he will fail this time as well," Houthi said.</p>
