He cited concerns of civilian casualties in Yemen that resulted from Saudi bombings of Houthi militants, which was backed by Iran.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/policy\/defense\/537346-biden-to-announce-end-to-us-support-for-offensive-operations-in-yemen\">reports<\/a>, analysts said a reduction of U.S. aid for the Saudis may give Iran an upper hand in that ongoing conflict. Sullivan also failed to address Iranian threats against U.S. regional allies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo it does not extend to actions against AQAP, which are actions that we undertake in service of protecting the homeland and protecting American interests in the region and our allies and partners,\u201d Sullivan said. \u201cIt extends to the types of offensive operations that have perpetuated a civil war in Yemen that has led to a humanitarian crisis.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2366539\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2366539\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-2366539 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/dzm0ugdauank9.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/GettyImages-1287467250.jpg\" alt width=\"1024\" height=\"694\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-2366539\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">WILMINGTON, DE \u2013 NOVEMBER 24: &nbsp;National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan speaks.&nbsp; (Photo by Mark Makela\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Officials also cast doubt on arms-sales to the UAE and Saudi Arabia that had been approved by President Trump to counter the Iranian threat.
