12 September 2026 in brief
Yemeni government forces said they had begun shelling parts of Mokha, from which many residents had fled to Aden, and Saudi civil defence said a Houthi projectile wounded two people and damaged a mosque in Jazan. [1][2] The tanker El Gaia was set ablaze in the Strait of Hormuz with two crew missing, Oman said; the IRGC said it hit mines, while US Central Command said an Iranian drone struck it, so the cause is disputed. [1] Iranian state media said three security personnel and four gunmen were killed in clashes in Saravan, Sistan-Baluchestan. [1] Iraq said the drones that struck Saudi Arabia came from its territory, closed three border crossings with Iran and dismissed its Maysan commander, while President Trump said Iran was probably responsible for the pipeline attack. [1] Bahrain said it would not join any Hormuz meeting with Iran, and a State Department official said the next round of US-mediated Israel-Lebanon talks was postponed to October. [1][2]
