Yemen Taught Trump Some Lessons That He'd Do Well To Apply Towards Ukraine
Authored by Andrew Korybko via substack,
The lessons from Trump's Yemeni debacle could inform his future decisions on Ukraine...
Five New York Times (NYT) journalists collaborated to produce a detailed report earlier this week about “Why Trump Suddenly Declared Victory Over the Houthi Militia”. It's worth reading in full if time permits, but the present piece will summarize and analyze its findings. To begin with, CENTCOM chief General Michael Kurilla proposed an eight- to -10-month campaign for degrading the Houthis' air defenses before carrying out Israeli-like targeted assassinations, but Trump decided on 30 days instead. That's important.
The US' top regional military official already knew how numerous the Houthis' air defenses were and how long it would take to seriously damage them, which shows that the Pentagon already considered Houthi-controlled North Yemen to be a regional power, while Trump wanted...

Saudi Arabia Pressed Trump To Stop Attacks On Yemen Ahead Of Visit
Via Middle East Eye
Saudi Arabia has been lobbying the US to stop all US attacks on Yemen ahead of President Donald Trump's visit to the kingdom, warning that it would create an "embarrassing situation" for Riyadh and the US, Middle East Eye can reveal.
Saudi Arabia has resisted the US bombing campaign in Yemen since the Biden administration began strikes in 2024, but their insistence that attacks stop picked up last week as they became more concerned about the scope of the strikes, two US officials told MEE on the condition of anonymity.

Breakthrough Ceasefire? Trump Orders Halt To Yemen Bombings, Houthis Have "Capitulated"
Did the White House make some kind of diplomatic breakthrough with the Houthis of Yemen? There may be behind-the-scenes, unofficial and indirect diplomatic engagement going on, but in the Red Sea there's a full-scale war scenario. But perhaps no longer.
This week Israel joined the US coalition's bombardment of Yemen, following a ballistic missile launch on Ben Gurion International Airport, resulting in six injuries. President Trump on Tuesday has indicated the Houthis are ready to talk and no longer want to fight the US. The Houthis within an hour of the headlines denied this, calling the president's words "inaccurate". Fight still on?...
