Houthi Red Sea control and escalating Taiz siege

Overview

The Houthi offensive has fundamentally shifted the conflict, with Ansar Allah forces seizing control of Yemen’s western Red Sea coast, including the strategic port of Mocha and several key islands. This advance has consolidated Houthi control over the Bab al-Mandab Strait, raising international concerns regarding global trade.

Military operations have intensified through the ‘Dawn of Yemen’ campaign. In Taiz, government forces and popular resistance are engaged in heavy fighting against Houthi militias across the Al-Aqroud, Al-Masrakh, and Jabal Sabr fronts. Recent escalations include intense ground clashes and airstrikes in the Al-Masrakh district, where over 30 Houthi fighters were reportedly killed. Local activists have alleged that Houthi forces used projectiles containing chemical substances and that civilians, including a ten-year-old child, have been targeted by sniper fire.

In Al-Jawf province, government forces reportedly regained control of portions of the Huwayshiyan mountains. Meanwhile, the Saudi-led coalition reported intercepting a Houthi drone in the Makkah region. In Aden, residents remain on alert following Houthi claims of responsibility for strikes targeting the international airport, military camps, the city port, and the presidential palace.

The humanitarian situation in Taiz is catastrophic. The UN warns that approximately 800,000 people are trapped in the governorate, where access to water and essential services is restricted by shifting frontlines. Human Rights Watch has described the siege of Taiz as a “possible war crime of starvation.” Yemeni Minister of Endowments and Guidance, Sheikh Turki al-Wadaei, has called for urgent international intervention to lift the blockade, describing it as a religious and humanitarian duty.
