WASHINGTON — The widening US war with Iran spilled into another flashpoint Saturday as Saudi Arabia and Yemen’s Houthi terrorists traded airstrikes, raising fears that fighting is spreading into another critical shipping corridor. The latest escalation comes just days after the Iran-backed Houthis attacked several Saudi commercial vessels in the Bab el-Mandeb Strait — a waterway connecting the Red Sea to the Gulf of Aden that carries roughly 5% of global maritime trade. The Houthis claimed they struck two Saudi Arabian oil facilities Saturday, announcing they launched dozens of ballistic missiles, cruise missiles and drones at Saudi state-owned energy giant Aramco’s facilities in the Red Sea cities of Yanbu and Jizan.
