The Houthis don't need to close Bab el-Mandeb to strangle it — they just need to make transit unpredictable. The next phase of the Yemen conflict is a struggle over the cost of control. ⛓️⚓

🚨 Breaking: Houthis seize Yemen's Red Sea coast, Saudi oil pipeline hit by drones from Iraq

Houthi forces have captured the strategic port of Mokha and Perim island at the Bab el-Mandeb, while Riyadh suspends its crucial East-West pipeline after drone strikes — the kingdom's only export route bypassing Hormuz. Crude is back above $100 as an unprecedented energy squeeze grips the Gulf.

#Yemen #Houthis #SaudiArabia #OilMarkets #RedSea

The #oilpipeline was providing partial bypass for the blocked-off #StraitofHormuz in the #PersianGulf, through the #RedSea. If the Houthis block the Bab al-Mandeb strait, the marine traffic between the #Meditteranean sea and the #IndianOcean through the #SuezCanal and #RedSea would be cutoff.

With this, Iran now controls a second marine choke point through their proxy. And with the oil bypass pipeline shutdown, expect the #CrudeOil prices to rise further.

Developing #GeoPolitics situation:

#Iran-backed #Houthis take control of #Yemen's west coast and the critical #BabalMandeb strait in the #RedSea, from Saudi backed PLC forces.

Meanwhile, the East West #CrudeOil Pipeline of #SaudiArabia is shutdown after it was hit by an explosion, reportedly set off by the Iran-allied Iraqi Resistance Forces.

This follows close on the heels of the #Saudi forces attack on the Houthis. This is a major setback for the #US alliance.
