Houthi forces surge along Yemen’s Red Sea coast, seizing islands and pushing back Saudi-backed troops, sparking fears of global oil supply chaos. Saudi Arabia retaliates with heavy airstrikes as the U.S. escalates its travel warning for government workers near the Yemen border. Unconfirmed reports claim a Houthi downing of a Saudi jet, while Houthis deny targeting Mecca—accusing rivals of propaganda. After months of relative calm, renewed fighting follows a July naval blockade, reigniting tensions. With Saudi Crown Prince seeking U.S. military backing, Washington faces a tough choice: deepen involvement to stabilize energy markets—or risk further escalation.
