US-Israel-Iran War Latest Live News: The US-Israel-Iran war’s regional fallout continued to widen on Tuesday, October 13, as US President Donald Trump said Washington would make a decision on Iran “very soon,” while Iran-aligned Houthi militants intensified their confrontation with Saudi Arabia. The developments included reported attacks targeting Saudi interests, warnings around oil facilities in Yemen and Saudi Arabia, and fresh concerns over the security of commercial shipping in the Red Sea and the strategic Bab al-Mandab Strait.
Trump also described the Houthis as “behaving very badly” and said he might ask Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan to intervene in support of Saudi interests. Meanwhile, Saudi-led coalition forces reported destroying three drones north of Riyadh, while reports of planned military action near oil infrastructure in Yemen raised further concerns about the conflict’s potential impact on regional energy supplies and civilian safety.

Trump Says Houthis Are ‘Behaving Very Badly’, Signals Possible Erdogan Intervention
Trump criticised the Iran-backed Houthi movement, which controls large parts of Yemen, as attacks and counterattacks involving the group and Saudi Arabia intensified. He also said he might ask Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan to intervene in support of Saudi interests.
The comments point to the possibility of wider diplomatic or security involvement as the conflict spreads across the region. However, Trump did not confirm that a request had been made or that Turkey had agreed to take any action.
The Houthis have been fighting Yemen’s internationally recognised government, which has received Saudi support, since 2014. Their latest escalation has raised concerns over Saudi security, commercial shipping and the stability of an already fragile regional environment.
US-Israel-Iran War Latest Live News: Saudi-Led Coalition Announces Planned Operation Near Oil Facility in Sanaa
Saudi-led coalition forces urged civilians to evacuate the area around the Yemen Oil Company’s Sabah central station in Sanaa ahead of what the coalition described as a planned military operation. The coalition’s joint forces command identified the location on a map and asked residents to leave for their safety.
A Houthi-backed broadcaster, Al-Masirah, subsequently reported airstrikes against oil facilities west of the Yemeni capital. Witnesses in Sanaa reportedly heard explosions, although it was not immediately clear which facilities had been struck or the extent of any damage.
The separate reports underscore the growing risks around energy infrastructure as fighting intensifies. Details of the reported strikes and their consequences require confirmation from further official statements or independent reporting.
