On September 23rd at 7 PM, Yemeni President Rashad Al-Alimi met with President Donald Trump at the Madison Hotel, where Al-Alimi thanked the U.S. for designating the Houthis as a foreign terrorist organization and affirmed his forces' readiness to fight to restore Sana'a. Al-Alimi declared the Houthis a global threat and urged Washington and the international community to support legitimacy. During the meeting, Al-Alimi characterized the Houthi movement as a global threat and requested support from the United States and the international community for legitimate governance. This meeting occurred prior to the current reporting window, which spans September 27th, 2025, 10:06:48 PM to 9/27/2025, 10:36:32 PM UTC. Previous reports from September 27th indicated that the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that three European countries had lost their authority to invoke a "fundamental breach" regarding JCPOA obligations, citing a lack of consensus on reimposing sanctions after a divided Security Council vote on September 26th. Additionally, Iranian officials were reportedly considering exiting the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), with doctors reviewing the possibility, according to the "ژئوپلیتیک" Telegram channel. Context from earlier on September 27th revealed that Iran's Parliament was scheduled to review the nation's potential exit from the NPT on September 28th, 2025, with a commission member noting that the construction of an atomic bomb could be considered if an NPT exit was deemed necessary. Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesperson also stated during the day that diplomatic solutions were being pursued and any response to a "snapback" would be proportionate to national interests. This was occurring alongside a MiG-29 fighter being spotted over Tehran. The U.S. Air Force had also released a documentary detailing American fighter squadrons defending Israel from Iranian attacks on April 13, 2024.
