I haven't spent much time with it, but from what I've seen, we're dealing with a pseudo-nation state engaged in guerilla style combat tactics. The only way to "end it" is by a full scale invasion or by turning half of a country into a glass parking lot. Neither of which are politically palatable.

An insurgent group that controls a breakaway portion of what is/was Yemen. They are backed by Iran and hate Saudi Arabia, and the west by proxy.

Yemen might be the most God-forsaken landscape in the world. Let’s turn it into glass.

Per General CQ Brown Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff stated to ABC News that the crew of the MT Marlin Luanda which was hit by a Houthi Anti Ship Ballistic Missile in the Starboard Number 5 Tank has been forced to abandon ship due to uncontrollable fire. General CQ Brown further stated
the crew was able to make it aboard a lifeboat, while the
INS Visakhapatnam is on scene and
USS Carney and a French warship
were en route to provide assistance.

Time to start taking out Iran's ports one at a time until they deal with the Houthis.

There's a big difference between "can't" and "won't".
