WASHINGTON — US President Joe Biden says today that the United States has delivered a private message to Iran about Iran-backed Houthis responsible for attacking commercial shipping in the Red Sea.

“We delivered it privately and we’re confident we’re well-prepared,” Biden tells reporters at the White House before departing to the Camp David presidential retreat for the weekend.
