Event: 13 Sep 2026 (approximate)
Urgency: Watch · Evidence: Attributed claim
Reuters and the Associated Press report that US officials and Houthi representatives met in Oman over the weekend to discuss regional tensions. The reports attribute the meeting to unnamed people familiar with it, including a Houthi official. Neither report provides public confirmation from all parties or evidence of an agreement.
What the sources establish
Reuters and AP separately report that the meeting occurred, drawing on unnamed sources; AP says one of its sources was a Houthi official. These are independent reports of an attributed meeting, not public confirmation by every participant. The reports do not establish an agreement, a ceasefire change or future action. The date is approximate because the reporting describes the meeting only as taking place over the weekend. The marker is country-level.
