Trump Rejects Saudi Call for US Strikes on Yemen's Houthi Movement

US President Donald Trump has rejected an appeal from Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to launch military strikes on Yemen's Houthi movement. The request was made as Houthi forces pushed closer to the Bab el Mandeb Strait, a strategic waterway linking the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden.

The passage is a critical route for international shipping and Saudi oil exports, increasing concerns over its security. The Houthis have already captured the coastal city of Mokha, further raising tensions in the region.

Despite Trump's refusal to directly intervene, the US has increased its support for Saudi Arabia by deploying more military advisers to the kingdom. Over 100 personnel are now stationed in Saudi Arabia, providing intelligence and target-selection assistance to Saudi operations.
