Marib conflict escalates as Security Council condemns Houthis
The clashes in the Marib front in Yemen are escalating, as the Houthis launched missile and drone attacks resulting in the death and injury of dozens of government forces and civilians. These attacks targeted military bases and residential areas, amid warnings of a larger escalation that could bring the war back to a broader level. On the regional front, Houthi attacks have hit Saudi territory, injuring 11 people. The escalation is concentrated in Marib, a strategically important province that contains oil and gas fields, raising fears of expanding violence and Yemen once again becoming a battleground for regional conflicts. The United Nations warns that Houthi escalation could threaten the stability of the current ceasefire and deepen civilian suffering, while also maintaining the risk of a full-scale war resuming.
