Saudi Arabia is planning a major offensive against Yemen’s Houthis aimed at retaking the Bab el-Mandeb strait and easing the group’s hold on Red Sea shipping routes, according to reports from Reuters, Axios and The Telegraph. Ynetnews reported that the operation could involve 100,000 troops.
The reported plans come as a Saudi-led coalition says it has attacked 324 “high-value targets” in Yemen using 100 fighter jets, Sky News reported. The coalition described the strikes as an operation against the Iran-backed Houthis.
Axios reported that the United States would not participate in the planned offensive for now. People’s World, however, characterized the Saudi bombing campaign as receiving help from the Trump administration.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Monday that Saudi Arabia had the right to defend itself against Houthi attacks. Speaking to reporters in Maryland, Rubio said neither Saudi Arabia nor Yemen’s internationally recognized government favored Houthi control of the territory. He also said Washington intended to honor its binding security agreement with Saudi Arabia.
