Saudi pipeline attacked, Iran sabotages deal and more

In a rapid offensive down Yemen’s Red Sea coast, Houthi forces seized new ground directly overlooking the Bab al-Mandeb. Then, they reportedly crossed onto Mayyun Island - also known as Perim - which sits in the middle of the strait. Now, Houthi conventional weapons - artillery and rockets - can strike at ships, not just longer-range drones and missiles.

And another contingency plan for the global oil market has come under serious threat. On Friday, Saudi Arabia announced that it had shuttered its East-West Pipeline, blaming drone attacks from inside Iraq that it said had caused “injuries and some damage.”

Experts talk to CNN about these and other latest developments in the Iran war.
