REPORT - HOUTHIS SEIZE STRATEGIC RED SEA PORT CITY: Iran-backed Houthi forces have reportedly seized control of Yemen’s historic port city of Al-Mokha, giving them greater leverage near the vital Bab el-Mandeb Strait. Government forces are retreating south toward Dhubab as the Houthis also target strategic Red Sea islands. Al-Mokha’s commercial port had already been knocked out of service and heavily damaged following weeks of Houthi missile and drone attacks.
