Houthi militia nears control of Mocha and Zubaib
The Iran-backed Houthi militia is nearing control of the western coast cities in Taiz Province, particularly Mokha and Zubair, in a development that strengthens its influence over the strategic Bab al-Mandab Strait. The militia is intensifying its military efforts to consolidate control over the coastline overlooking the Red Sea, amid clashes with Saudi-supported forces. This progress poses a threat to maritime security and international trade, especially with the escalation of missile and drone attacks on facilities inside Saudi Arabia, which have resulted in 73 injuries and damage to oil facilities. The Houthi advance coincides with efforts by the resistance forces led by Tariq Saleh to reorganize power in the region, marking a new phase of escalation that threatens maritime routes and global oil markets.
