In the clip above, Trump says that "The Houthis have announced -- well they didn't announce to us -- that they don't want to fight anymore. They just don't want to fight and we will honor that."

^^ Houthis spokesperson says they will no longer attack US military but will continue to attack Israel.
** Adding more context on this point. Mohammed al-Bukhaiti says that Ansarallah is not stopping their operations in the Red Sea. What I am interpretting here is that Ansarallah is agreeing to not attack US military as long as the US military doesn't try to protect ships in violation of the Ansarallah naval blockade on Israel.

^^ Trump says going to make an announcement on Thursday or Friday, calling it “one of the most important announcements that have been made in many years” about a “very important subject.” He is expected to travel to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE starting May 13
I saw a statement from Ansarallah saying they didn't make any agreement with Trump. Does that mean Trump is just backing down on his own? Guess the bombings really were ineffective. Kinda surprised but maybe it's because they want to pivot to Iran?
Trump in the press conference says that there was no official communications with Ansarallah. He said that he believed that Ansarallah made a statement that they would stop attacking the US if the US stopped attacking them. I think Trump is doing a strong arm and hoping they play along.
A statement from Mohammed Ali al-Houthi, says the US halt of “aggression” against Yemen will be evaluated. "Trump's announcement of a halt to America's aggression against Yemen will be evaluated on the ground first. It is a victory that separates American support for the temporary entity from a failure for Netanyahu, and he must resign."

Mohammed al-Bukhaiti says "As for our attacks on the US, they fall within the context of the right to self-defense. If it halts its attacks on us, we will halt our attacks on it. This position also applies to Britain."

I think the important distinction is that Ansarallah is agreeing to not attack US Military. They are still open to attacking ships linked to Israel as long as Israel continues the genocide in Gaza.
