Houthi forces said their offensive was over after expelling government troops from six districts. [1] This paper printed Perim seized as Friday's island. An announcement of an end is not a cease-fire. Print the claim. Do not print a closed Bab.
Long War Journal filed the western-coast claim with the island. [1] Government forces disputed gains in the same week's file. A dispute is not a vanished claim. Print six districts as the Houthi word. Leave a recapture to the edition that owns a recapture.
Monday's island is Monday's. Friday prints Perim and a claimed end in six districts. Do not stitch them into Hormuz.
Friday is not a cease-fire.
Perim already owns Friday's only named island on this desk.
