Yemen’s Houthis have agreed not to fight the United States, despite intensifying attacks against Saudi Arabia in recent days, U.S. President Donald Trump said.
According to Trump, the movement does not want Washington to intervene directly in the military conflict. American representatives did hold talks with representatives of the Iran-backed Houthis in Oman.
The Houthis reportedly assured Washington that they had no intention of attacking American ships and would respect the ceasefire with the United States reached in 2025.
At the same time, the conflict between the Houthis and Saudi Arabia is escalating. A day earlier, Riyadh said it had intercepted a ballistic missile aimed at the capital. The Houthis also announced attacks on oil facilities.
Trump has so far rejected calls for the United States to launch direct strikes against the movement. Washington has limited its role to intelligence and other support for the Saudis.
