Aviation disruption: Air Cairo cancelled Abha flights and offered rebooking or refunds as the airport closure spread travel chaos across the region.

Global stakes: The UN Security Council extended Red Sea attack reporting and warned Yemen risks renewed full-scale conflict, while WHO/UNICEF said Yemen remains among the worst-hit countries for children missing routine vaccines.
