Briefing by Hans Grundberg, Special Envoy of the Secretary-General for Yemen, on The situation in the Middle East - Security Council, 9835th meeting.
---
The Special Envoy of the Secretary-General for Yemen, Hans Grundberg, today (15 Jan) told the Security Council that recent Israeli airstrikes on Yemen, which have damaged civilian infrastructure, including the Port of Hodeidah and Sana'a International Airport, impact “the ability to unload humanitarian aid.”
Airstrikes by Israel – as well as the United States and the United Kingdom - on Yemen were lunched in response to repeated attacks carried out by the Houthis on commercial vessels in the Red Sea since mid-November 2023.
Grundberg reminded the Council that the United Nations” has been consistent and strong in its messaging: civilians and civilian infrastructure must never be targeted, whether in Yemen, Israel or Gaza.”
The Special Envoy noted that “while regional tensions dominate the headlines, we have witnessed some escalation along several front lines, reminding us that the relative stability and improved security conditions for civilians that have existed since the 2022 truce could be lost.”
These attacks, he said, “must cease, and the parties must urgently take concrete steps towards achieving a nationwide ceasefire agreement.”
The Office of the Special Envoy, Grundberg said, “has continued to hold discussions with the parties on actions needed to create the conditions for a ceasefire.”
He stressed that “any further escalation risks undermining existing commitments and would have devastating humanitarian consequences for Yemen's people, who have already endured nearly a decade of unimaginable hardship.”
Assistant Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Deputy Emergency Relief Coordinator Joyce Msuya, in her briefing to the Council, said, “hostilities in and around Yemen and the wider region have persisted, with increasingly alarming humanitarian repercussions for civilians.”
Msuya said, “the Houthis have continued to target Israel with drones and missiles, causing several civilian injuries and damaging a school near Tel Aviv and homes in Jaffa,” while Israeli airstrikes “have killed and injured dozens of civilians, and have caused significant damage to civilian infrastructure.”
Overall, she said, “the last month has seen a concerning increase in attacks against vital civilian infrastructure, upon which millions of people depend for electricity, safe movement and the import of essential food and medical supplies.”
Msuya noted that “Yemen relies on imports for over two thirds of the food, and some 90 percent of all medicine and medical supplies for the population,” and “humanitarians depend on these seaports to bring in live-saving humanitarian supplies, including food and medicine. Impairing their operations causes direct and immense civilian hardship and suffering.”
The humanitarian official said, “almost half of Yemen's population, over 17 million people, is unable to meet their basic food needs. The most marginalized, including women and girls, those displaced in communities such as the Muhamasheen, are the worst affected. Almost half of all children under the age of five suffer from moderate to severe stunting caused by malnutrition. Cholera is at appalling levels.”
Yemeni Ambassador Abdullah Ali Fadhel Al-Saadi, for his part said, “through the ongoing military escalation, the terrorist Houthi militias are shirking their responsibility towards peace. They are undermining all regional and international efforts and the efforts of the United Nations to end this protracted war and the humanitarian crisis of the Yemeni people. At a time when the government of Yemen condemns the attacks of the Israeli entity against Yemen and the violation of its sovereignty, we hold Houthi militias the responsibility of dragging Yemen to the conflict in the region. We warn these militias from continuing to hold the fate of Yemen and the Yemeni people hostage to drag them to their futile battles in order to serve the interests of their sponsor, the Iranian regime and its expansionist project in the region.”
The Houthis rebel group has threatened to continue its attacks until Israel ends its military campaign in Gaza that followed the 7 October 2023 Hamas-led attacks. Since December 2023, member states participating in the US-led Operation Prosperity Guardian, including the UK, have been routinely carrying out retaliatory strikes against Houthi targets in Yemen.

United Nations Video: UN Chief on Israel-Hamas ceasefire - Security Council Stakeout | United Nations
Remarks by United Nations Secretary-General, António Guterres, on Israel-Hamas ceasefire agreement at the Security Council Stakeout.
--------------------
UN chief welcomed the announcement of a deal to secure a ceasefire and hostage release in Gaza.
Addressing the presto today (15 Jan), UN Secretary-General António Guterres said, “I welcome the announcement of a deal to secure a ceasefire and hostage release in Gaza. I commend the mediators — Egypt, Qatar, and the United States of America — for their dedicated efforts in brokering this deal. Their unwavering commitment to finding a diplomatic solution has been critical in achieving this breakthrough.”
He then called on all relevant parties to uphold their commitments and ensure that this deal is fully implemented.
He said, “From the outset of the violence, I have called for an immediate ceasefire and the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages.”
He highlighted, “Our priority must be to ease the tremendous suffering caused by this conflict. The United Nations stands ready to support the implementation of this deal and scale up the delivery of sustained humanitarian relief to the countless Palestinians who continue to suffer. It is imperative that this ceasefire removes the significant security and political obstacles to delivering aid across Gaza so that we can support a major increase in urgent lifesaving humanitarian support.”
He stressed, “The humanitarian situation is at catastrophic levels. I call on all parties to facilitate the rapid, unhindered, and safe humanitarian relief for all civilians in need. From our side, we will do whatever is humanly possible, aware of the serious challenges and constraints that we face, but we expect our efforts to be matched by other humanitarian actors, the private sector and bilateral initiatives.”
He continued, “This deal is a critical first step, but we must mobilize all efforts to also advance broader goals, including the preservation of the unity, contiguity, and integrity of the Occupied Palestinian Territory because Palestinian unity is essential for achieving lasting peace and stability, and I emphasize that unified Palestinian governance must remain a top priority.”
He urged the parties and all relevant partners to “seize this opportunity to establish a credible political path to a better future for Palestinians, Israelis, and the broader region. Ending the occupation and achieving a negotiated two-state solution, with Israel and Palestine living side by side in peace and security, in line with international law, relevant UN resolutions, and previous agreements remain an urgent priority.”
He concluded, “Only through a viable two-state solution can the aspirations of both peoples be fulfilled. I pay tribute to the civilians who have lost their lives, including UN personnel and humanitarian workers. The United Nations is steadfast in its commitment to supporting all efforts that promote peace, stability, and a more hopeful future for the people of Palestine and Israel, and across the region. Thank you.”

BBC News Video: Gaza and Israel welcome ceasefire and hostage deal but will the war end? | BBC News
Palestinians in Gaza have been celebrating the news of a ceasefire and hostage release deal reached between Israel and Hamas.
The ceasefire which is intended to mark the end of 15 months of war is due to begin on 19th January.
The US President Joe Biden confirmed agreement had been reached for a full and complete ceasefire, the withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza and the release of all the hostages held by Hamas. 94 hostages are believed to be held by Hamas of whom 34 are presumed to be dead.
Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had long resisted a ceasefire and hostage agreement for months, due to pressure from right-wing members of his cabinet, knowing a deal could bring his government down. However it’s understood that the prospect of US President-Elect Donald Trump taking office had put pressure on both Israel and Hamas.
This latest bloody phase of a conflict that’s lasted many decades began when Hamas attacked southern Israel on 7 October 2023, killing about 1,200 people and taking 251 back to Gaza as hostages. The attack triggered a massive Israeli offensive on Gaza, during which more than 46,000 Palestinians have been killed, according to the Hamas-run health ministry.
The obstacles to any permanent peace are huge. Much of Gaza lies in ruins and Hamas has said it will not forget Israel for the suffering it has inflicted on Palestinians there. Many nations are calling for focus now on a two-state solution to address the roots of a conflict that has lasted for more than 70 years.
Sophie Raworth presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Jeremy Bowen, Sarah Smith, Lucy Williamson, Fergal Keane and Nick Eardley.

'Police Misconduct Hearings Over Kiena Dawes Abuse'
Three Lancashire Constabulary officers are facing disciplinary proceedings after 23-year-old mum, Kiena Dawes, took her own life following prolonged abuse by her former partner, 30-year-old Ryan Wellings.
Ms Dawes was assaulted by Wellings two weeks before she died.
He was arrested, and shortly afterwards, Ms Dawes reported him to the police for contacting her – a breach of his bail conditions.
An officer had dismissed her complaint, and she was also urged to delete a Facebook post in which she had written about the abuse she’d endured.
This all left her feeling, “unsupported” by police and she was upset that Wellings had not been, “locked up”.
On Monday, Wellings was found guilty of assault and prolonged domestic abuse at Preston Crown Court but was cleared of manslaughter.

Musk was in the Los Angeles’ Pacific Palisades neighborhood to deploy Cybertrucks fitted with SpaceX satellite internet terminals to help with the connectivity in the area.
The tech billionaire joined a briefing with the L.A. fire command team inside the response HQ.
In the video, Musk asked if the Palisades area had run out of water, a claim he has used to criticise California’s leadership.
The firefighter corrected him, explaining the issue was low water pressure, not a water shortage, leaving Musk caught off guard.

International Video: Gaza ceasefire deal reportedly close even as Israel strikes continue
Are we about to see a ceasefire in Gaza? There have been 465 days since Hamas launched its attack on Israel, killing 1,200 people and taking 250 hostages.
(Subscribe: https://bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
Since that day - October 7, 2023 - the Israeli military has killed more than 46,500 people in Gaza, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health. That's a rate of 100 people a day.
So could the killing be about to stop? Details of the ceasefire deal suggest its first phase would see some hostages being released in exchange for Palestinian prisoners and Israeli forces withdrawing from parts of Gaza.
