President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that the U.S. will end bombing campaigns against Houthi rebels in Yemen.
Trump said the Houthi terrorists had “capitulated,” and that bombing operations would cease immediately after the group said they’d stop bombing ships in the Gulf of Aden and other locations, Trump said in a joint press conference with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney. The Houthi rebels have targeted commercial ships and U.S. Naval vessels since 2023, causing billions of dollars in economic damage as global shipping was cut off from the Suez Canal in the Red Sea.
“This was always a freedom of navigation issue,” Secretary of State Marco Rubio said during the conference. “The job was to get that to stop, and if it’s going to stop, then we can stop.”
The Pentagon and The State Department did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s requests for comment.
