Omani Foreign Minister Badr al-Busaidi said the deal followed 'recent discussions and communications with the US and the relevant authorities in Sanaa' to reduce the risk of further escalation. The US State Department described the agreement as a 'test of the Houthis' seriousness,' underscoring that the group had expressed willingness to observe a ceasefire via Omani mediation. 'Actions, not words, will be the basis for judgment.' The ceasefire announcement comes after a period of intense military activity.

The strikes came alongside Israeli operations and broader efforts to deter attacks on international shipping routes in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden.

Houthis Confirm Ceasefire As Trump Declares 'Mission Accomplished'
The Houthis have confirmed there will be a ceasefire in the Red Sea with the United States. The deal was mediated by Oman, and this looks like a 'mission accomplished' moment for Trump where he's ready to grasp onto a way out of the quagmire the US found itself in. Wisely, he is getting the US out, and Israel appears to be stepping up in terms of its own defense. Mideast war correspondent Elijah Magnier observes, 'The US intelligently stopped the bombing on Yemen due to the lack of objectives, the empty outcome and the high cost versus no gain.' Others have noted this is essentially a declare 'mission accomplish' and cut and run moment, amid no better alternatives.
