Trump says US will stop bombing Houthis after agreement struck
- On Tuesday, President Donald Trump stated that the U.S. Would cease airstrikes against Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis following a ceasefire agreement brokered by Oman to safeguard American shipping in the Red Sea area.
- The announcement came after months of intensified U.S. Strikes aimed at stopping Houthi attacks on global shipping amid rising tensions from the Israel-Hamas conflict, while the ceasefire notably excludes Israel from the agreement.
- The Houthis have agreed to halt attacks on American vessels passing through key maritime routes such as the Bab al-Mandab and surrounding waters, but they indicated that strikes targeting Israel may persist, underscoring their continued backing of Palestinians in Gaza.
- Since March, the U.S. Military has carried out thousands of strikes targeting over a thousand sites in Yemen, with costs exceeding $750 million. Meanwhile, Israeli air attacks successfully incapacitated Sanaa airport as retaliation for missile launches by Houthi forces near Israel.
- The ceasefire could ease tensions and reopen a vital trade corridor handling about $1 trillion annually, though analysts expect the Houthis to persist in striking Israeli interests, maintaining a fragile regional security environment.
