⚡️🇺🇸🇮🇷 — US President Trump on Iran:

They want to make a deal, but I don't think they are ready yet.

Sometimes they don't want to admit it publicly because they want to appear tough.

There are two approaches available to us.

We can continue taking them apart piece by piece, potentially accelerating that process.

Alternatively, we can negotiate with them, and discussions are happening right now as we speak.

⚡️🇺🇸🇮🇷 — US President Trump on Iran:

When you are winning a war by a lot, you shouldn't just stop fighting.

We are speaking with them right now, and they are now willing to make concessions they never would have considered before.

Previous presidents should have resolved this issue long ago, over the course of the past 50 years.

🚨🇸🇦🇾🇪 — Official Spokesman for the Saudi-backed Coalition Forces:

«The official spokesperson for the Coalition Forces “Coalition to Support Legitimacy in Yemen,” Major General Turki Al-Maliki, stated that the Houthi militia carried out a cowardly and reckless act when it targeted commercial ships in the Red Sea, adding this to its list of crimes and maritime terrorism against one of the most important international waterways.

He further clarified that the port of Al-Hudaydah was not targeted, and that all Yemeni ports, including (Al-Hudaydah, Ras Issa, and Al-Salif), remain open to maritime navigation and continue to receive commercial ships transporting food supplies, goods, fuel, and construction materials, as well as flights to Yemeni airports. The Houthi militia continues to refuse to allow flights from Sana’a International Airport and insists on besieging the Yemeni people in order to export the problems and suffering it has caused and to increase the suffering of our Yemeni brothers in the areas under its control.

The targeting focused on legitimate military objectives of the terrorist Houthi militia linked to the threat against ships in the Red Sea. The military response operation has concluded after achieving the principle of proportionality and the planned operational objectives.

Major General Al-Maliki affirmed that the Joint Forces Command of the Coalition will continue to take all necessary operational measures and steps to protect our ships and to protect the interests of the Kingdom and its national capabilities. Should the Houthi militia continue its hostile acts, it will be responded to without hesitation.»

🚨🌟🇸🇦 — Yemen Foreign Ministry (San'a'):

«The Saudi regime bears responsibility for all the consequences of the developments resulting from its criminal act.

Instead of giving in to the rightful and just demand to lift the siege on Yemen, the Saudi regime committed a great folly that will cost it a heavy price.

With the Saudi regime targeting Hodeidah province, the equation of "escalation against escalation" will be the title of the next stage.»

⚡️🇸🇦🇾🇪 — Saudi Ambassador to Yemen, Mohamed Al Jaber:

«The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has sought, and continues to seek, to support all efforts toward de-escalation and peace, and to back the efforts of the UN Special Envoy to Yemen to reach a comprehensive political solution that ends the suffering of the Yemeni people. However, the Houthi terrorist militia persists in pursuing a path of escalation and violence instead of de-escalation and peace, serving foreign agendas that have no connection to Yemen and do not serve the interests of its people.

Peace will not be achieved through slogans or political maneuvering, but rather through a genuine will that places the interests of Yemen and its people above all else, and rejects violence, subservience, and the foreign agendas that have prolonged the conflict and exacerbated the suffering of millions.

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will remain, as everyone has known it, a supporter of the brotherly Yemeni people throughout Yemen, and a supporter of its legitimate government, until Yemen enjoys security, stability, and peace.»
