Houthi-aligned council head offers amnesty to Saudi-backed forces if they lay down arms

The head of Yemen's Houthi-aligned Supreme Political Council offered amnesty to Saudi-backed forces if they disarm, according to Iranian state media IRIB. The offer, if genuine, would be a significant step toward de-escalation in Yemen. No independent verification is available. The offer follows a separate claim of stability in Taiz coastal areas. The market signal is indirect and contingent on confirmation.
