Von der Leyen calls on EU to speed up Ukrainian entry
Houthis Confirm Deal with Trump to ‘Pause’ Attacks
"The Houthi insurgents of Yemen confirmed they have reached an agreement with the United
States to “pause” their attacks on international shipping in the Red Sea, in exchange for a pause in U.S. airstrikes on Houthi positions in Yemen.
Houthi spokesman Mohammed Abdul-Salam hastened to add that the ceasefire with America has “no connection with our stance on supporting Gaza." ....U.S. and Israel finally took decisive action against Houthi piracy and terrorism this week. The Israelis inflicted heavy damage on Yemen’s international airport in the occupied capital of Sanaa on Tuesday, a rather pointed response to the Houthis managing to get a missile past U.S. and Israeli air defenses and detonate it near Ben Gurion Airport.” Breitbart
