1 November 2026 in brief

The Houthi-run Saba agency, citing a Houthi health ministry spokesperson, said a strike it attributed to Saudi Arabia injured three civilians at an oil company station in Bajil, Hodeidah; separately, Saudi-led coalition spokesman Turki al-Maliki said the coalition carried out an operation against resources the Houthis use for ballistic missiles and drones. [1][3] Al-Maliki also said air defences intercepted and destroyed a ballistic missile and a drone the Houthis launched toward southern Saudi Arabia, and Yemeni army spokesman Majed Abdullah al-Nazili said government forces killed about 500 Houthi fighters on the al-Jawf, Marib and al-Bayda fronts, a claim Al Jazeera said it could not verify. [1] UKMTO said an unknown projectile struck a vessel in the Strait of Hormuz, which the security firm Vanguard Tech named as the offshore tug Selat Storm, and that two unknown projectiles struck a tanker about 72 nautical miles east of Ras al Khafji, with all crew accounted for; the IRGC Navy said two oil tankers on an unauthorised route struck naval mines and exploded. [1][2] Iranian negotiators held a third consecutive day of talks with Qatari mediators in Doha, an official quoted by Reuters said, and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said consultations had not yet reached a definitive conclusion, while President Trump said the war would be put away "very soon, one way or the other". [1] Iranian army spokesman Mohammad Akraminia said a future war could last longer than the last one, and Ali Nikzad, deputy speaker of parliament, said the window for negotiations was closed.
