  "account": "In Yemen's strategic Red Sea port city of Mokha, at least six civilians were killed and eight others injured in Saudi-led coalition airstrikes, according to the Houthi-affiliated news agency Saba. The Houthi movement, backed by Iran, has been advancing along Yemen's Red Sea coast, including Mokha, prompting the Saudi government to respond. Yemen's governing body head Rashad al-Alimi called US President Donald Trump for assistance, though Trump did not pledge military aid. Meanwhile, British Prime Minister Andy Burnham reportedly agreed to provide military support to Saudi Arabia. The Houthi's recent gains have solidified Iran's influence over crucial waterways, such as the Strait of Hormuz, vital to Saudi Arabia's oil exports. The conflict in Yemen began in 2014 following Houthi capture of the capital Sanaa and escalated in July with Saudi Arabia leading a coalition supporting the internationally recognized government.",
  "summary": "The Houthis have launched a rapid offensive to seize Yemen’s Red Sea coast, including Mokha, putting the Saudi-backed government under pressure.",
