Supreme Political Council

The Supreme Political Council (SPC; Arabic: المجلس السياسي الأعلى‎ al-Majlis as-Siyāsiyy al-ʾAʿlā) is an executive body formed by Houthi Ansarullah and the General People's Congress (GPC) to rule Yemen. Formed on 28 July 2016, the presidential council consists of 10 members and until his death from a drone air strike on 19 April 2018 was headed by Saleh Ali al-Sammad as president with Qassem Labozah as vice-president. SPC carries out the functions of head of state in Yemen and is to manage Yemen's state affairs in a bid to fill in political vacuum during Yemeni Civil War in 2015. The Council aims to outline a basis for running the country and managing state affairs on the basis of the existing constitution. Later, SPC is also responsible for creating a head of government led by Abdel-Aziz bin Habtour known as National Salvation Government.

The members were sworn on 14 August 2016. On 15 August, the Supreme Revolutionary Committee (SRC) handed power to the Supreme Political Council. However, as of today, the SPC is not internationally recognized.
