US EditionTrump says US will stop bombing Houthis after agreement struck
- On Tuesday, President Donald Trump declared from the Oval Office in Washington that the U.S. Would immediately cease its airstrikes against Yemen’s Houthi rebels, ending a campaign that had been ongoing for almost two months.
- The halt followed a self-imposed Houthi ceasefire and discussions involving U.S., Omani, and Yemeni negotiators, although a U.S. Official said Israel was not notified beforehand.
- The agreement commits both parties to refrain from attacking each other or U.S. Ships passing through the Red Sea and the Bab al-Mandab Strait, thereby protecting maritime navigation and the uninterrupted passage of commercial vessels.
- Trump claimed that the Houthis have surrendered and informed U.S. Representatives that they wish to cease fighting, while analyst Gregory Brew pointed out that the Houthis have not targeted commercial vessels since December.
- The cessation ends U.S. Airstrikes that began in mid-March, during which more than 800 targets were struck and hundreds of Houthi fighters killed, signaling a potential easing of conflict tensions.
