Aden

In a foreign ministry statement, the kingdom described the military operations by Yemen's Southern Transitional Council (STC) as an "unjustified escalation."

The STC’s growing power in southern Yemen, while unlikely to mitigate Houthi terrorism, could gift Israel a key ally in the region, particularly if an independent south joins the Abraham Accords.

Yemen’s Houthis named Exxon, Chevron, and other US firms as targets, vowing attacks in the Red Sea despite a prior truce with Trump’s administration.

Saudi and British envoys pledged millions to boost the coastguard of Yemen's anti-Houthi gov't, with support from 35 countries, to protect Red Sea and Gulf of Aden trade routes from Houthi terrorism.

Upon entering the facility on August 3, Houthi terrorists compelled the building’s remaining Yemeni staff to hand over their personal belongings and now occupy the grounds.

Individuals told international media that they witnessed authorities attacking the crowds, beating protesters with batons and blocking off the city.

Chief negotiator for the Houthi movement told Reuters that they have provided assurances to both China and Russia that their vessels will pass through the Red Sea unprovoked by the Houthis.

The Houthis, who control Yemen's most populous regions, have attacked vessels with commercial ties to the United States, Britain, and Israel.

US and British warplanes, ships and submarines have launched dozens of air strikes across Yemen against Houthi forces in retaliation.

A joint operation carried out by the United States, Spain and Japan searched more than 21,000 square miles of ocean for the missing SEALs, CENTCOM said in the statement.
