Famine...

The U.S. military will no longer provide midair refueling for the Saudi-led coalition's warplanes fighting in Yemen. The end of midair refueling removes the support for the coalition, especially in light of international criticism of its targeting civilians.

The change came after growing pressure from Congress to end U.S. support for Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Yemen's government in their battle with rebels, known as the Houthis, that has stretched for nearly four years, killing at least 16,200 civilians and bringing 14 million people to the brink of famine.

It also comes as the U.S. has joined a push for a cessation of hostilities in Yemen and diplomatic efforts by the United Nations Special Envoy Martin Griffiths to bring the warring parties to the table for talks by the month's end. 

So why did we do that for four years, any reason?
