President Biden confirms delivering a private message to Iran regarding Iran-backed Houthis behind Red Sea shipping attacks. Departing for Camp David, he expresses confidence in the message's delivery. Tensions escalate as the Houthi movement threatens a forceful response to the recent US strike in Yemen. The strike targeted a radar site after earlier attacks on Houthi facilities. White House assures no interest in a war with Yemen. Biden, acknowledging the Houthis as terrorists, emphasizes preparedness and diplomatic approach. The US removed the Houthis from the foreign terrorist list in 2021.
