Houthis Dig Trenches near Bab al-Mandab
A Yemeni military source has revealed that the Houthi group has dug trenches and planted mines along the vital international maritime corridor near the Bab al-Mandab Strait, with the aim of obstructing or hindering the recent efforts to regain control of areas they've lost. He explained that the Houthis have laid numerous mines in the region, which is considered one of the world's most important shipping passages. This development comes as part of a broad military escalation since September, which has resulted in the Houthis taking control of strategic areas in Al Hudaydah and Taiz, including the city of Al Mokha, and asserting their influence over the maritime route. These actions are increasing the complexity of the situation on the ground in Yemen.
