It has been claimed on American media that US President Donald Trump had ordered an attack against the Houthis in Yemen at the request of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, but changed his decision before the attack and halted the action.

According to the American newspaper New York Times, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman requested Trump to join the United States in the operation against the Houthis, after which Trump instructed the Pentagon to prepare for the attack.

According to the report, the US Army had completed preparations for the attack, commanders had approved target lists, and bombs were being loaded onto planes.

The New York Times says that many in Trump’s inner circle were opposed to involving the US military, already strained and strained by the ongoing war with Iran, on another front against the Houthis.

According to the American media, as a result of this pressure, American President Trump changed his decision and stopped the attack against the Houthis.
