The leader of Yemen's Ansar Allah movement, Abd al-Malik al-Houthi, ordered a halt to missile and drone attacks on Israeli targets, as well as on commercial vessels in the Red Sea not affiliated with Israel.

Al-Houthi stated this in an address, noting that the decision was made in connection with the entry into force of the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

According to al-Houthi, the ban on Israeli-owned vessels or vessels bound for Israeli ports will remain in place until all stages of the ceasefire agreement are fully implemented. Attacks on American and British ships will also cease if the US and UK refrain from attacks on Yemeni territory.
