In 2012, after Saleh stepped down as a result of the [[Yemeni Revolution]], part of the wider [[Arab Spring]] protests, in a political transition plan backed by Gulf states, Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi became the interim president and oversaw a national dialogue to draft a more inclusive, federal constitution. In 2014 the Houthis rapidly advanced south from Saada and seize [[Sanaa]] on September 21 with help from Saleh. In 2015, Hadi tried to announce a new federal constitution. The Houthis, who opposed the constitution, arrested him and forced him to resign. He escaped to Aden and declared it as the interim capital. He also asked the international community to intervene, triggering the Saudi led Arab military coalition intervention.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-yemen-security-timeline/timeline-yemens-slide-into-political-crisis-and-war-idUSKCN1R20HO|title=Timeline: Yemen's slide into political crisis and war|publisher=Reuters|date=21 March 2019}}</ref>

As part of the 2015 Yemeni Civil War, the cabinet authority is contested by the Houthis, who took over the capital Sanaa in an armed rebellion against the government and formed the Supreme Revolutionary Committee and Supreme Political Council in 2015.

UN security council's resolution 2216 declared that it considers the Hadi-led government as the "legitimate Government of Yemen" and denounced what it described as the "unilateral actions taken by the Houthis".
