*Khairan's term has been disputed by Mahmoud al-Subaihi.
Hussein Nagi Khairan (Arabic: حسين ناجي خيران, romanized: Ḥusayn Nājī Khyrān) is a Yemeni military officer. Until November 2016, he served as defense minister for the Houthi-appointed government of Yemen, having been appointed on 22 March 2015, after the defection of Mahmoud al-Subaihi to the internationally recognised government of Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi in Aden. According to a Houthi political official, Khairan's appointment placed him in direct command of all military units except for those loyal to Hadi.[2] He reportedly took charge of the military offensive against Hadi's holdouts in southern Yemen.[1]
