Greg Wehner is a breaking news reporter for Fox News Digital.

Kirby also said the U.S. and others – including 44 signatories including NATO, the entire European Union and G7 – condemning "in the strongest terms" the threats and acts by Houthis. Story tips and can be sent to Greg.Wehner@Fox.com and on Twitter @GregWehner.
