Washington, the UAE and Saudi Arabia share an objective to fight against the Iran-backed Houthi rebels and other terrorists in Yemen, wrote Massad Boulos, the US President Donald Trump's senior adviser for Arab and African affairs, in a post on X.
The statement was attached to one from the US embassy in Yemen. "Our common objective is to fight the Houthis and the other terrorist groups, such as Aqap [Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula] and ISIS,".
The envoy spoke last week to On The Record, broadcast by Sky News Arabia and The National.
In the interview, Mr Boulos said that another objective in Yemen was to ensure "safe and secure navigation" in the Red Sea. He emphasized that "the common objective has not changed" despite recent political divisions.
The US has sporadically intervened in Yemen, particularly to crack down on Houthi attacks against global shipping lanes.
Washington attacked Houthi positions in Yemen in response. A truce in May last year between the US and the Houthis ended the strikes.
