UN Special Envoy Hans Grundberg told the Security Council that Yemen had slid back into full-scale war as Houthi and internationally recognised government forces continue fighting. He called for collective support for mediation and said regional security and freedom of navigation must be addressed.
Why it matters
The envoy's assessment signals that the Yemen front is expanding rather than de-escalating, complicating efforts to protect Red Sea and regional shipping routes.
