The article's last sentence is corrected to read: "Trumpf administration officials have claimed they would stop the airstrikes if the Houthis declared they would stop targeting US ships, but there's no sign the US is considering the offer since it's really bombing Yemen for Israel and Muhammad Bin Salman (MBS)".
