US officials decide against backing Saudi Arabia in Yemen after meeting Houthi leaders

U.S. officials have announced they will not provide further support to Saudi Arabia in the Yemen war after recent talks with leaders of the Houthi movement. The discussions suggest the Houthis have reached a tentative understanding with the Trump administration regarding measures to protect commercial vessels navigating the Red Sea, aiming to reduce shipping risks in the region.
