Though Saudi officials remain silent on specific attacks, they’ve issued alerts and the U.S. has upped its travel warning for the region. The Houthis say they shot down a Saudi jet but offer no proof, while U.S. officials recently met with them in Oman, where the group insisted they won’t target American ships and still honor a ceasefire. With global oil supplies already under strain, traders brace for further disruption as Saudi Arabia’s key East-West pipeline remains offline—with hopes of a quick recovery. The conflict’s sudden flare-up raises urgent questions about energy markets and U.S. strategy in the volatile Middle East.
