Saudi Arabia has intensified airstrikes on Houthi positions across multiple Yemeni provinces in response to the Iran-backed group's rapid September 2026 offensive, which captured the Red Sea port of Mocha, Perim Island, and other coastal areas near the Bab al-Mandeb Strait. Riyadh continues to rely primarily on Saudi-backed Yemeni government forces for ground operations while providing air support, training, and equipment, amid reports of those proxy units retreating in several sectors. The United States has expanded intelligence and targeting assistance to Saudi Arabia but ruled out direct strikes or combat involvement, leaving the kingdom to manage the escalation largely through its own air campaign and regional diplomacy. Clashes persist in Taiz, Marib, and Lahij, with hundreds of thousands displaced and cross-border Houthi missile and drone attacks targeting Saudi infrastructure. Scheduled events or further Houthi advances could influence whether Riyadh deploys its own ground troops inside Yemen.
