All source submissions that originally contained this claim.
Fighting has intensified near Yemen's oil-rich Marib Province as Iranian-backed Houthi militants expand their offensive after seizing the country’s Red Sea coastline. Analysts warn a Houthi push into eastern regions would threaten the government's economic lifeline and risk a fresh humanitarian crisis.
After four years of relative peace, Yemen has spiraled back into full-blown war between Iran-backed Houthi militia and Saudi-backed Yemeni government forces. The conflict has opened a second front in the Middle East after the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran, adding to global uncertainty and turmoil in energy markets.
