Prisoner Swap Breakthrough: Yemen’s government and the Houthis have signed a UN-backed deal in Amman to release more than 1,600 detainees, with the government saying it covers about 1,728 people—one of the biggest swaps in the war’s 11-year history—while the UN envoy Hans Grundberg and the ICRC oversee the process. Regional Pressure on Yemen: The same week saw global leaders push for security in the Strait of Hormuz as Iran’s threat posture is debated by US officials, keeping maritime risk and energy disruption at the top of the agenda. Diplomatic Ripples: Jordan and Qatar both welcomed the agreement, framing it as a humanitarian step toward stability. Southern Yemen Legal Move: In Aden, authorities annulled compulsory arrest warrants against senior STC figures after claims failed to meet legal thresholds, highlighting shifting governance and fragile order.
