U.S. Won't Back Saudi Against Houthi Advance After Muscat Talks

U.S. officials met Houthi leaders at the U.S. embassy in Muscat over the weekend, then decided not to help Saudi Arabia counter a Houthi advance in western Yemen. The Houthis said the 2025 ceasefire held and U.S. shipping would not be targeted. President Trump condemned the advance but rejected military support for Riyadh.
