What happened
Fighting continues in Yemen as government forces launched Operation Dawn of Yemen to reverse Houthi gains. While the army reported neutralizing 307 fighters in 736 operations, Houthis thwarted advances in al-Jawf and continued to control strategic areas. The Houthis previously seized Sanaa in 2014, leading to resource shortages and strained civil infrastructure.

Why it matters
The conflict, which began in 2014, has led to severe humanitarian crises, including rising prices and cut supply routes in cities like Taiz. The Houthis have also advanced in the Bab al-Mandeb Strait, while previously attacking Saudi tankers and oil facilities.
Amid regional disruptions linked to the Houthi movement, Somaliland recently received its first country recognition and signed a strategic cooperation agreement.
