Storyline


Yemen's Houthi group on Thursday celebrated a recently-announced ceasefire agreement with the United States as a "victory for Yemen" while warning of a "devastating response" to Israel, according to the Houthi-run Saba News Agency.

During a meeting in Sanaa, members of the Houthi Supreme Political Council evaluated "developments related to U.S. President Donald Trump's ceasefire announcement" and expressed appreciation for "Oman's brotherly and responsible role" in facilitating the agreement.

The Houthi political council took a markedly different tone regarding Israel, warning that the group's "response to Israeli aggression will be devastating, with great momentum, and will be imminent."

"As long as the aggression and blockade on our people in Gaza continues, Yemen's supportive operations for Gaza will also continue and intensify until the aggression stops, and the siege is lifted, especially for the children who are now starving in Gaza," said Hazem Al-Asad, member of the Political Bureau of Ansar Allah.

On Tuesday, Omani Foreign Minister Sayyid Badr bin Hamad bin Hamood Albusaidi said in a statement that his country has brokered a ceasefire between Yemen's Houthi group and the United States.

In Yemen, people have a wide range of opinions on this recent breakthrough.

Some see the deal as a chance to reduce foreign attacks, while others say it is not enough, as the blockade and humanitarian crisis continue.

"We hope the agreement between the United States and the Sana'a government will hold, and that the U.S. will not resume its attacks on Yemen. As a citizen, I see it as a potential step toward peace that could ease the suffering of the Yemeni people," said Alaa Saeed, a resident.

"The agreement between the United States and the Yemeni Armed Forces came at America's request after involving Oman as a mediator," said Hassan Al-Sawari, another resident.

Despite the agreement, a military spokesman for the Houthis said Yemeni forces will not hesitate to strike the United States if Washington resumes its attacks on Yemen.
