Security Council Extends Yemen Mission Mandate to 2026
Aden — The United Nations Security Council has voted to extend the mandate of the United Nations Mission to Support the Hudaydah Agreement (UNMHA) for an additional six and a half months, pushing its expiration to January 28, 2026. The resolution, drafted by the United Kingdom, reaffirms the Council's commitment to stabilizing Yemen's fragile ceasefire and supporting humanitarian access through the strategic Red Sea port city of Hudaydah. The vote comes at a time of heightened regional instability, with recent Israeli airstrikes on Houthi-controlled infrastructure and renewed missile launches from Yemen threatening maritime security in the Red Sea. UN Special Envoy Hans Grundberg warned that Yemen risks being pulled deeper into regional conflicts, urging all parties to uphold the ceasefire and avoid actions that could derail peace efforts. The renewed mandate enables UNMHA to continue monitoring the Hudaydah ceasefire, facilitating de-escalation, and supporting dialogue between Yemeni factions. Council members emphasized the importance of maintaining momentum toward a nationwide political settlement, especially as Omani-mediated talks between the Houthis and Saudi Arabia show signs of progress. The resolution also underscores the need for unimpeded humanitarian access, with over 21 million Yemenis still in need of aid. UN officials called for increased funding and protection for humanitarian workers, following recent detentions and operational suspensions in northern Yemen.

Houthi-Controlled Ports in Yemen Remain Operational Despite Israeli Airstrikes
Despite a series of Israeli airstrikes targeting key infrastructure in Yemen, several ports under Houthi control—including Hodeidah, Ras Isa, and Salif—remain operational, according to local sources and regional observers. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) launched coordinated strikes on July 6, 2025, aimed at dismantling what it described as Iranian-backed military hubs used by the Houthis to facilitate arms transfers and maritime surveillance. Among the targets was the Galaxy Leader, a commercial vessel previously hijacked by Houthi forces and allegedly repurposed for intelligence operations. Despite the intensity of the strikes, which included over 50 munitions dropped by Israeli fighter jets, no long-term disruption to port activity has been confirmed. Residents in Hodeidah reported temporary blackouts following damage to the city's main power station, but port operations resumed within hours. Houthi officials claimed their air defenses successfully repelled the Israeli assault using domestically produced surface-to-air missiles. The group also launched two ballistic missiles toward Israel in retaliation, though no casualties were reported. The continued functionality of these ports underscores the Houthis' entrenched control over Yemen's western coastline and their ability to maintain logistical operations despite external military pressure. Israel's Defense Minister reiterated that any entity threatening Israeli security 'will be dealt with forcefully,' signaling that additional operations may follow if Houthi attacks persist.
