Yemeni Forces Escalate Offensive Against Houthis in Taiz and Bab al-Mandab
Asharq Al-Awsat·YE·1 day ago
A Houthi military adviser warned that any US military intervention in Yemen or attempt to seize the Bab al-Mandab strait would cross a red line, prompting attacks on US interests in the Middle East. The threat escalates rhetoric amid ongoing Red Sea shipping tensions, though it remains a stated intention rather than an observed action. This signals potential for direct US-Houthi confrontation, with implications for global shipping and regional stability.
