The Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen have taken control of the key port city of Mokha near the Bab al-Mandab Strait. Get the latest on the Houthis seizing Mokha and increasing their threat to shipping in the Red Sea in our live breaking news coverage.
Mokha is a port city less than fifty miles from the Bab al-Mandab Strait, a strategic, narrow waterway through which a large amount of oil and other goods are shipped internationally. Holding Mokha gives the Houthis, who are supported by Iran, an increased ability to exert control over the strait. The Houthis captured Mokha from Yemeni government forces who are backed by Saudi Arabia. In this interactive live stream, host Steve Lookner brings you the latest updates on the Houthi advance which has seized the key city of Mokha close to the Bab al-Mandab Strait, and he’ll also read your comments and questions on the air!
