JUST IN: USA President Trump CALLED OFF strikes against Houthis.

President Trump called off planned US strikes against Yemen's Houthis on September 21, 2026.

Major outlets including Reuters and The New York Times report Trump initially prepared airstrikes after a Saudi Crown Prince call but reversed at the last minute with bombs already loading on aircraft.

The decision follows Houthi advances toward the Bab el-Mandeb strait, recent attacks on Saudi targets like Riyadh, and Trump's stated preference to avoid opening a new front while keeping direct channels with the group.
