Yemen government forces say hit Houthis in Red Sea city Yemen's government forces said Saturday that they had struck Houthi fighters in the Red Sea city of Mocha, as the number of civilians forced to flee the renewed fighting soared.

Trump says Houthis asked US not to intervene in Yemen Submitted by MEE staff on Sat, 09/12/2026 - 21:12 The US President's comments follow the report that Saudi Arabia's MBS urged Trump to strike Houthis amid the Red Sea threat Yemen's Houthis patrol as Yemeni prisoners loyal to the Houthi authorities arrive in the capital Sanaa on 12 September 2026 (AFP) Off The US President Donald Trump said on Saturday that Yemen’s Houthis asked the United States not to intervene in their spiralling conflict in Yemen with Saudi Arabia.  “The Houthis called us, and they let us know that they don't want to fight with us. They don't want me to go after them,” he said. Trump added that the Houthis are allowing most of the ships through and that there’s just “one country that they’re not too happy with”, promising to “get that straightened out”. His comments follow the Houthis’ expansion of control along Yemen’s Red Sea coast this week. In a lightning offensive, the Houthis have seized a wide swath of the Arabian Gulf's Red Sea coast, including strategic islands and the strategic Bab el-Mandeb Strait, a global shipping chokepoint that borders Eritrea, Djibouti and Yemen. The strait is a vital route for crude oil supplies from Saudi Arabia to Asia.

Trump reportedly rejected the request. On Friday, Saudi Arabia said it temporarily shut down its East-West Pipeline after drones launched from Iraq attacked its East-West pipeline.  The Kingdom said it will not retaliate for now following a request from Baghdad. Iraq, meanwhile, launched an investigation into the attack and confirmed that its "security forces found drone launchers near the Iraq-Iran border in the al-Tib." The government closed three of its crossings into Iran following the development. Commenting on the attack on the Saudi oil pipeline, Trump said Iran was “probably” behind the attack launched from Iraq that shut a vital oil pipeline in Saudi Arabia, but he has not provided any evidence. Trump also mentioned having spoken to Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, whom he described as a "friend". (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); The Houthis also targeted Saudi Arabian oil facilities this week in a massive drone and missile attack, as the widening conflict threatens to send energy prices even higher. In the latest attack, a Houthi projectile injured two people near the country’s southern border with Yemen on Saturday evening, hours after the government issued alerts warning of possible attacks.
