US Senate voted 54 to 46 to end military support for Saudi-led war in Yemen
Houthi rebel fighters inspect the damage after a reported airstrike carried out by the Saudi-led coalition targeted the presidential palace in the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, in 2017.
Lawmakers in the Republican-controlled chamber approved a historic curtailment of presidential war powers that directs Trump "to remove United States Armed Forces from hostilities in or affecting the Republic of Yemen" within 30 days. The text now heads to the Democrat-led Hous e of Representatives, which approved a similar measure that stalled earlier this year, and which is likely to pass the latest effort.Should the House approve the measure, it would be the first ever passed by Congress to invoke the 1973 War Powers Resolution to directly curtail a president's use of military powers.
Republican Senator Mike Lee concurred, saying Saudi Arabia "is not an ally that deserves our support or our military intervention."
