Saudi Arabia plans to expand its East-West pipeline to help bypass the chokepoint, though Houthi threats also put Red Sea routes at risk.

Israel and Gaza: Israel is blocking construction of a planned international military outpost in Gaza, while Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he is not seeking another strike on Iran before Israel’s October 27 election. Culture: Morocco has opened a publicly funded museum devoted to the country’s Jewish heritage in Fez.
