Yemen Government Forces Strike Houthi Targets in Mocha

Yemen's Saudi-backed government forces struck Iran-allied Houthi fighters in the Red Sea city of Mocha on September 12, 2026, destroying vehicles and weapons.

The UN migration agency reported that 76,000 people have fled the fighting since July, with needs far outpacing available delivery support.

Renewed fighting in the civil war has killed more than 500 people, following a Houthi offensive that captured the remainder of Yemen's Red Sea coast.
