Houthi gains threaten Bab al-Mandab

A report has indicated that the Houthis have officially taken control of the Yemeni city of Mokha, located 50 miles north of the island of Perim, completing their plan to dominate the coastline and tighten their grip on the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. This development reflects a serious escalation on the ground that threatens maritime navigation in the Red Sea, especially given the island's geopolitical significance and its impact on global energy flows following the decreased activity in the Strait of Hormuz. The Houthis' control over the area poses a major threat to maritime security, with the imposition of a naval blockade and attacks on strategic facilities and ports, leading to growing economic and political risks in the region as a result.
