YEMEN: Saudi Arabia plans counteroffensive to retake Houthi-held territory.

Which target matters more: Bab el-Mandeb Strait or a broader front? 👇

One option targets the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, a critical shipping chokepoint at the southern entrance to the Red Sea.

A second option would open a much wider front and could involve more than 100,000 troops.

The operation would be carried out with Yemeni government forces.
