Houthi Forces Gain Ground in Bab el-Mandeb Amid Saudi Oil Pipeline Attack

By Editor • September 12, 2026 • 1 min read

In a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict, Houthi forces have successfully captured essential locations around Bab el-Mandeb, a crucial maritime chokepoint. This move comes as Saudi Arabia has halted oil transfers through a vital pipeline following drone attacks that have raised alarms about the security of energy exports in the region.

The Houthis, who are aligned with Iranian interests, seized control of a key port and an island from Yemeni government forces, solidifying their presence in this strategic area. Despite the escalating tensions, Iran has distanced itself from the recent attacks on the Saudi pipeline, asserting that it did not orchestrate the drone strikes.

As the situation develops, the implications for global oil markets and regional stability remain a point of concern for analysts and authorities alike.
