On September 11, 2026, Yemen’s Ansarallah announced the capture of six districts in western Yemen and control of the Red Sea coast, coinciding with Saudi airstrikes on Mocha airport and reports that its East-West oil pipeline was struck. The escalation displaced at least 46,000 people according to the IOM, while the IRGC claimed the destruction of a U.

S. unmanned vessel in the Strait of Hormuz, contributing to oil prices surpassing $108. Concurrently, Israel intensified operations in Gaza and the West Bank, killing a Hamas commander and conducting attacks that resulted in multiple casualties, while also detonating explosives at the Ali Al-Taher ridge.
