Bab al-Mandab Fight Continues
The Houthis have confirmed that they have taken control of the entire western coast of Yemen and the strategic Bab al-Mandab Strait area, following a surprise attack in September on the region, during which they captured the strategic city of Al-Mokha. In response, the Yemeni government, supported by Saudi Arabia, announced progress in regaining control over the areas captured by the Houthis, especially Al-Mokha, through intensive airstrikes. This could weaken the Houthis' hold over one of the vital oil transit routes in the Red Sea. Clashes and renewed conflict in Yemen remain among the main factors exacerbating the humanitarian crisis, with 184,000 people displaced since the escalation began.
