Houthis say Saudi Arabia launched 26 strikes in Yemen over 24 hours

The Houthis claim that Saudi Arabia launched 26 strikes in Yemen over a 24-hour period. This escalation in military action comes as the Houthis have been making significant gains in the country, including their recent offensive to take control of the Red Sea coast. The increased conflict has significant implications for the global economy, particularly for trade routes that pass through the Bab al-Mandab strait, a vital waterway that connects the Red Sea to the Gulf of Aden.

Why it matters

The Houthi offensive and Saudi strikes are increasing tensions in the region. This could lead to further instability and violence in Yemen.
