8 September 2026 in brief
Houthi attacks on southern Saudi Arabia wounded 73 people and set energy facilities on fire, the Saudi foreign and energy ministries said, while Houthi health authorities said Saudi strikes in northern Yemen killed or wounded 14. [1][2] Jordan said it destroyed 18 of 20 ballistic missiles fired from Iran; CBS News reported US aircraft were damaged at Muwaffaq Salti Air Base, which President Trump denied, so the damage is disputed. [1] US Central Command said it destroyed five Iranian tankers after the IRGC twice targeted a US warship with ballistic missiles, and the IRGC said it then attacked two US vessels and eight tankers, a claim not independently confirmed. [1] The Qatari LNG tanker Al Marrouna crossed the Strait of Hormuz, the first LNG carrier to pass since July, Bloomberg reported. [1] The US Treasury sanctioned 36 targets for supporting Iran's aviation sector, including 27 Iranian airlines, and suspended Iran licences for bunkering, emergency ship repairs and overflight payments.
