Houthi rebels in Yemen have been hit by Saudi Arabian air strikes designed to bolster the government.

State-owned Kuwait Petroleum Corp (KPC) said on Sunday: “Kuwait oil tankers are smoothly navigating through Bab Al-Mandeb strait and the region has not been affected by the Saudi-led military operations against the Houthi militias in Yemen.”

On Thursday, Egypt sent four ships to Yemen to secure the waters around the port of Aden.
