AGP Executive Report
Last update: 5 hours agoBab el-Mandeb Push: Yemen’s Saudi-backed government forces say they have secured effective control of Bab el-Mandeb, seizing Dhubab (including its airstrip) and cutting the Dhubab–Mokha road, with fighting continuing as Houthis deny the gains. Port and Coast Gains: Reports also say pro-government forces recaptured the Red Sea port city of Mokha and took other nearby towns, aiming to roll back last month’s Houthi advance that threatened a key global shipping lane. Air Campaign Scale-Up: A Saudi-led coalition says 100 fighter jets joined “Dawn of Yemen,” striking hundreds of Houthi “high-value targets” and providing air protection over the strait. Energy Shock Risks: The conflict keeps pressure on oil logistics and supply chains; Saudi Aramco’s CEO warned replenishing crude and fuel stockpiles could take up to two years, while attacks have also disrupted Saudi infrastructure such as the East-West pipeline pumping. Regional Fallout: The Houthis warned airlines against operating in Saudi airspace, and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Washington will honor its security commitments to Saudi Arabia amid the escalation.
