UN Briefing on Yemen Developments
The UN Special Envoy to Yemen, Hans Grundberg, focused on the ongoing military escalation in the country, as Yemen once again slipped into full-scale war with increased hostilities on multiple fronts, including airstrikes and intensified fighting in the governorates of Taiz, Lahj, Marib, Al-Jawf, and Hodeidah. The briefing emphasized that civilians, especially women and children, are suffering greatly as a result of the escalating violence, and that commitments under international humanitarian law must be respected, including the distinction between civilian and military targets and the prevention of child recruitment. The report also highlighted the threats posed by the Houthis to commercial vessels in the Red Sea and the impact of military calculations on political opportunities, reaffirming that a political solution is the responsibility of the Yemeni parties. It underscored that sustainable peace requires a credible process addressing the root causes of the conflict, as this would contribute to regional stability and help alleviate the suffering of the Yemeni people.
