US Seeks Houthi Arms Ban
The U.S. representative to the Security Council, Jeffrey Bartos, warned that Houthi attacks and threats to close the Bab el-Mandeb Strait endanger international shipping and energy markets. He called for tighter enforcement of the arms embargo and an end to the smuggling of missile and drone components, noting that the Houthis had besieged hundreds of thousands of people in Taiz. He said a missile attack targeted King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh on October 10, killing at least 12 people and injuring more than 300. France also called for increased pressure on the Houthis to halt their attacks, particularly those against Saudi Arabia. On the ground, Yemeni government forces retook several positions, including the al-Suraih junction in Lahij Governorate, while strengthening their positions near Aden as the Houthis advanced in strategic areas of the governorate.
