Houthi forces, reportedly aided by Iran's IRGC, captured the port city of Mokha and nearby islands in Yemen. This positions them to potentially control the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, a critical chokepoint for global oil and gas shipments. The move escalates the conflict, linking it to the ongoing US-Iran tensions over the Strait of Hormuz.
