Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The suspension of refueling support impacts the operational capabilities of the Saudi-led coalition in Yemen. The U.S. had previously stopped the practice in 2018 after a Saudi airstrike on a school bus in Yemen, which was carried out with a U.S.-supplied bomb.
