We blockaded their only port that supplies food for the winning side of their defensive war against Saudi Arabia, causing a massive famine and even Cholera to spread killing a fuck ton of civilians.
This is why our threats don't work. It's hard to threaten a population that you've already tried to genocide who then went on to win their war.
Saudi Arabia blockaded them, the US joined in but then left relatively early on.
