Summary

A summary of the key points of this story verified across multiple sources.

President Donald Trump has announced a ceasefire with Yemen's Houthis, ceasing U.S. airstrikes. However, Houthi leaders declared the agreement does not include Israel, maintaining the potential for ongoing attacks against Israel-linked targets and vessels. The ceasefire was brokered with the assistance of Oman and follows months of U.S. military action aimed at halting Houthi shipping assaults in the Red Sea. Despite this halt to U.S. strikes, past Houthi actions raise skepticism about the sustainability of the ceasefire. Regional tensions remain high, particularly after a Houthi missile landed near Israel, prompting further Israeli military responses.
