Gulf countries postpone negotiations on the Strait of Hormuz

The Gulf countries postponed a meeting with Iran to discuss the future of the Strait of Hormuz, suspending sine die a proposed agreement for a temporary commercial navigation route. The postponement was due to the lack of consensus among the Arab monarchies and Saudi Arabia's irritation at Tehran's support for Houthi attacks in Yemen, a divided territory where the rebels advanced and took control of the Bab al-Mandab strait. The Houthis continue to launch missile and drone attacks against Saudi military and energy targets, including King Khalid Air Base, while Iran-backed militias in Iraq forced Riyadh to close an essential oil pipeline. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman met with US Central Command to discuss the regional situation, suggesting that Saudi Arabia may request American military support.
