Fall of Mokha
In September 2026, the Houthi-led Supreme Political Council launched a surprise offensive to capture the Red Sea coast of western Yemen and territory around Taiz to cement its influence over the Strait of Bab al-Mandab. The offensive that followed heavily concentrated on the port city of Mokha, and the city served as an epicentre of the Houthi offensive. The Houthis (referred to as Ansar Allah) eventually captured the city of Mokha on 10 September. The city of Mokha was previously under the control of the Yemeni National Resistance led by Tareq Saleh. The fall of Mokha was attributed to the Houthis' use of swarm tactics, and the "tactical withdrawal" of the National Resistance that caused the lines in Mokha to collapse. On 5 October 2026, Yemeni media claimed that the PLC recaptured Mokha. However, this was denied by the Houthis.
