MUSCAT, Oman: The United States and Yemen's Houthis have agreed to a ceasefire, mediators announced on Tuesday (May 6), saying the deal would ensure "freedom of navigation" in the Red Sea where the Iran-backed rebels have attacked shipping for months. The agreement comes after President Donald Trump announced that the US would end attacks against the Houthis after the rebels agreed to stop harassing ships, though he made no direct mention of recent attacks on ally Israel.
