America has increased economic pressure on Iran via new sanctions on its oil business, organizations, and the "shadow fleet" via "Operation Economic Outcast," while President Donald Trump declared that meaningful negotiations are taking place and no military strikes will take place before the November midterm elections. On the other hand, there have been increased military tensions when Saudi forces shot down Houthi missiles to Riyadh and Khamis Mushait after attacks by Houthis on Saudi Arabia airports, a move that was condemned by Oman while Yemen reported killing 1,900 Houthi fighters in its "Dawn of Yemen" campaign.
