UN Security Council to Brief on Yemen as Houthi-Saudi Tensions Escalate

The UN Security Council is scheduled to hold an open briefing on Yemen on Monday afternoon, following a request from the Yemeni government citing recent violations of resolutions by the Houthi rebel group, allegedly with Iranian support. This comes as the Houthi movement accused Saudi Arabia of launching airstrikes against Sanaa international airport and vowed retaliation, potentially jeopardizing a long-standing truce.
