Trump Halts Bombing Campaign as Houthi Rebels Signal End to Attacks

“It is a victory that separates US support for the temporary entity [Israel] and a failure for Netanyahu, and he must resign,” said senior Houthi leader Mohammed Ali al-Houthi.

“Trump’s announcement of a halt to US aggression against Yemen will be evaluated on the ground first.”

Mahdi al-Mashat, head of the Houthis’ Supreme Political Council, also issued a defiant message via the Houthi-run Saba news agency:

“There is no turning back from supporting Gaza, no matter the cost. What happened proves that our strikes are painful and will continue.”

Israel Left in the Dark as Conflict Intensifies

Notably, Israeli officials were not informed of the ceasefire before Trump made it public. The announcement came just hours after Israel carried out significant strikes on Houthi targets in Yemen, including the port of Hodeidah and power infrastructure.

Earlier this week, a Houthi-launched ballistic missile penetrated Israel’s missile defense system and struck near Ben Gurion International Airport—a major escalation.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed retaliation, warning the response would not be “one and done.”

U.S.-Iran Talks Gain Momentum

Trump’s special envoy, Steve Witkoff, has been working behind the scenes on nuclear negotiations with Iran. The Houthi ceasefire is viewed as a strategic step to build momentum for a broader U.S.-Iran agreement.

The U.S. and Iran have already held three rounds of nuclear talks, with a fourth expected though not yet scheduled.

“This understanding is an important development,” Rubio emphasized, linking it directly to diplomatic progress.

Despite weeks of airstrikes, the Houthi rebels have demonstrated surprising resilience.

According to U.S. officials, the campaign has been hindered by the group’s ability to shoot down at least seven U.S. drones—each worth millions of dollars.

These setbacks prevented the operation from entering its “phase two,” which was intended to more directly disrupt Houthi command and control.

The ceasefire also followed a pointed warning from U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who posted on X that Iran would “pay the CONSEQUENCE” if it continued supplying the Houthis.

“We know exactly what you are doing,” Hegseth wrote. “You know very well what the U.S. Military is capable of.”
