Can Yemen keep the Houthis from recapturing the Bab el-Mandeb Strait?
Yemeni government forces take control of the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez calls an early election after parliament rejects his plan to tackle Spain's housing crisis. The US Supreme Court starts its new term with a docket set to test the limits of President Donald Trump's power.

What the coverage shows
All three outlets focus on Yemeni government forces and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, but they frame the situation differently. South China Morning Post reports the minister’s claim that the forces have secured effective control, while Reuters’ headline and extract state that they take control and add a broader question about whether they can keep the Houthis from recapturing it. Associated Press is alone in emphasizing video of fighting near the strait rather than control.
