Yemen Alimi seeks US aid against Houthis
Reports confirmed that Yemen's Chairman of the Leadership Council, Riyadh Alimi, contacted U.S. President Donald Trump to discuss recent developments in Yemen. He requested support to counter the advancing Houthi movement near the Bab al-Mandeb Strait. Sources indicated that Trump did not provide direct military assistance and had changed his stance regarding airstrikes against the Houthis, following a request from Saudi Arabia, to avoid escalating the conflict and impacting maritime navigation in this vital waterway. Additionally, the statements revealed that Washington is focusing on intelligence support and diplomatic efforts, with assurances that the Houthis do not intend to close the strait or target American vessels. Trump has also refrained from taking direct military action to maintain maritime security and prevent a spike in oil prices.
