Yemen’s govt forces report strikes on Houthis in Red Sea city
Middle East3 sources3 countries🔦 Under-reported3m ago
Yemen’s Riyadh-backed government forces reported conducting military strikes against Iran-allied Houthi fighters in the strategic Red Sea city of Mocha on Saturday. The engagement follows a week-long offensive by Houthi forces that resulted in their capture of the city and three additional strategic islands along the coast.
These developments have granted the Houthis control over Yemen’s entire Red Sea coastline, effectively securing a critical shipping corridor that links Europe and Asia. The consolidation of this territory is expected to intensify the regional conflict and increase the impact of the war on international maritime trade.
