Security Council Warns of Yemen Escalation

The United Nations Security Council has begun discussions on the escalating crisis in Yemen, amidst heightened Houthi attacks and threats to navigation in the Red Sea and Bab el-Mandeb Strait. The UN envoy warned that Yemen faces the risk of sinking back into a wider war, which could lead to further regional escalation. He called on all parties to de-escalate tensions and return to negotiations. The envoy emphasized that the humanitarian situation remains dire, with 11 million Yemenis in need of assistance. Additionally, the escalation of clashes poses a threat to maritime freedom of navigation, prompting international calls to halt attacks and resume dialogue. Criticisms were also voiced regarding Iran’s support for the Houthis and its use of Yemen as a platform for arms transfers, amidst ongoing clashes and attacks on military zones and ships in the region.
