Saudi Arabia's coalition said it shot down a Houthi drone near Mecca on September 8 and warned that any threat to the holy city would trigger decisive action. The statement came after a wave of Houthi attacks that wounded at least 73 people and set fire to oil facilities in southern Saudi Arabia, according to AP and Al Jazeera. Intelligence later linked the drone swarm to Iran-backed groups, prompting Saudi and U. S.

forces to strike militia sites in Iraq, as reported by AP. In the following days the Houthis seized the Red Sea port of Mokha and nearby islands, raising concerns about Red Sea shipping and global oil flows, per BBC, CNBC, NPR and PBS. Saudi Arabia and Egypt then called for unrestricted navigation through the Red Sea and Bab al-Mandab Strait, according to Yahoo.
