    The Tihamah Resistance is an armed group formed by locals of Yemen's Tihamah Region,[3] aiming to resist Houthi control of the west coast region of Yemen. The group was formed in 2014, when Houthis seized Al Hudaydah and the rest of North-Western Yemen. The group was active in 2015 at the start of the war, participating in the Battle of Taiz on the side of the pro-Hadi coalition.[4][5][6][7][8] In December 2017, the group took part in the Al Hudaydah governorate offensive, alongside UAE, Saudi, Hadi loyalists and Southern Movement fighters.[9][10][11][12] The group is closely aligned with Tareq Saleh's National Resistance, and the Giants Brigades.[2]
