Ceasefire in Yemen's Houthi Conflict

President Trump announced the halt of strikes against Yemen's Houthi group, following a bombing campaign. The halt was framed as an agreement to stop the Pentagon's bombing campaign in exchange for the Houthis not attacking American ships. Tensions in the region are unlikely to calm down with Israel escalating strikes against the Houthis. Special envoy Steve Witkoff worked to reach a ceasefire with Oman as a mediator. The Houthi group will stop attacking U.S. military ships if the strikes are halted but will continue operations in support of Gaza.
