AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoYemen Airport Crisis: Houthis say Sanaa International Airport is fully operational again after runway repairs following airstrikes blamed on Saudi-led forces, while Yemen’s government earlier said it hit the runway to stop an Iranian passenger aircraft from landing in violation of Yemeni sovereignty. Regional Escalation: The airport fight is unfolding alongside a wider US-Iran standoff over the Strait of Hormuz, with Washington launching fresh strikes on Iranian coastal defence and missile sites as Iran warns it may shut off more energy export routes. Shipping Pressure: Shipping firms are reportedly avoiding US-guided Hormuz transits after Iranian attacks on vessels, raising new risks for Gulf and Red Sea trade. Arab and UN Response: The Arab Parliament condemned attacks on Emirati tankers in Hormuz waters and also condemned Houthi missile strikes on southern Saudi Arabia, while the EU Mission in Yemen warned that Houthi attacks threaten regional stability and urged restraint. Humanitarian Outlook: A new FEWS NET assessment warns Yemen’s acute food insecurity will stay widespread until at least January 2027, with food assistance needs peaking in July–September 2026. Local Yemen Protests: Rallies and marches across Sana’a, Hajjah, Amran, Rayma, and other areas condemned the Sanaa airport strikes and backed armed forces’ response.
