Houthis Complete Encirclement of Taizz, Trapping Saudi-Backed Forces
⚔️ TAIZZ — Saudi proxies surrounded in Yemen's third city — with no US rescue coming. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: Taizz has been contested for years — full encirclement now traps Saudi-backed forces just as Washington refused Riyadh's Houthi backup. Houthis consolidate Yemen's interior while striking Aramco simultaneously — a two-front squeeze on Saudi strategic depth. MBS must choose: negotiate Houthi terms or commit forces without US air cover he no longer has.
