Yemen’s offensive near Mocha raises the stakes for Red Sea shipping, Saudi security and regional defense strategy.

Yemen’s mobilization call reflects rising pressure on its government as Houthi gains threaten Red Sea trade, oil exports and Gulf security planning.

Saudi Arabia says it intercepted a Houthi missile aimed at Riyadh as attacks strain Aramco logistics, Yanbu exports and Red Sea shipping routes.

Russia will attend G20 energy talks in Houston, testing U.S. strategy as energy security, sanctions and shipping risks dominate the agenda.

The capture of Mocha strengthens Houthi positions near Bab el-Mandeb, raising risks for Red Sea shipping and global energy markets.
