The US has decided to cease its bombing campaign against Yemen's Houthis following claims by President Trump that the Iran-aligned group agreed to stop targeting shipping in the Red Sea. This announcement occurred during a meeting with Canada's prime minister amidst escalating violence in the region. Notably, Israel has been conducting retaliatory airstrikes, claiming to have disabled Yemen's main airport. While Trump noted a commitment to halting bombings based on Houthi assurances, the accuracy of these claims remains unclear, as no immediate response has come from Houthi leaders.
Trump claimed that the Houthis had agreed not to target shipping in the Red Sea, leading to a halt in the US bombing campaign in Yemen.
Despite the positive announcement, there is doubt regarding the accuracy of Trump's description of the agreement with the Houthis, with no immediate response from them.
