→Arabian Penninsula
The conflict was split into two fronts with opposing dynamics. Inland, government forces were logging advances in the Al-Jawf province, capturing hills north of Al-Labanat and cutting off [[logistics]] routes east of Hazm, while securing prisoners and seized [[weapon]]ry, just as the government claims territorial gains in Marib.

The [[Unite3d States]] and [[Israel]] began looking for bases outside the range of [[Iranian]] [[missile]]s, from which to project power into the [[Arabian Sea]] and [[Gulf of Oman]]. Basing in the [[Horn of Africa]] would provide access to the region and the current situation might afford a bit of a breathing space that might allow the US to build a survivable base. The [[Houthi]] southward push toward the Arabian Sea puts that project under pressure. The Houthis, if their gains are consolidated, will be within ready missile range of Puntland and will have effective fire control not only over the [[Bab el Mandeb Strait]] but also its approaches in the Arabian Sea. It also provides more direct access to the strategic island of [[Socotra]].
