Diplomacy & Pressure: The UN Security Council held an emergency session as Yemen’s recognized government urged enforcement of the arms embargo and action against weapons and smuggling networks, while Saudi Arabia warned the Houthis are trying to “choke the straits.” Regional Institutions: IGAD ministers met in Djibouti, including a visit to the bloc’s new headquarters under construction, as leaders stress financial and political commitment amid mounting Horn of Africa crises.
