Senior US national security officials met behind closed doors at Camp David on Friday to discuss the war in Iran and the conflict between Saudi Arabia and Yemen’s Houthi movement, according to “Axios”.
Vice-President JD Vance chaired the meeting, which lasted several hours, the outlet reported, citing three US officials. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth, special envoy Steve Witkoff, CIA Director John Ratcliffe and Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Dan Caine also attended.
One official said issues were either resolved or discussed at length.
US weighs next steps on Iran
With negotiations stalled, President Donald Trump is considering whether to resume large-scale military operations against Iran. The Pentagon is preparing to send a third aircraft carrier strike group and additional Marine ships to the Middle East, potentially adding up to 10,000 troops, “The Wall Street Journal” reported, citing US officials.
The forces are expected to arrive by the end of November, the newspaper said. Trump has previously said he could restart strikes on Iran after the US midterm elections in early November if no agreement is reached.
Saudi Arabia presses for action in Yemen
Riyadh is urging Washington to join airstrikes against the Houthis ahead of a planned offensive, according to the report. The group has been fighting Yemen’s government forces since 2014.
Trump has so far been reluctant to join the strikes, although officials said he could change his position.
