The United Nations Security Council voted unanimously Thursday to extend targeted financial and travel sanctions against designated individuals in Yemen through Nov. 14, 2027, keeping the regime in force for another year, Anadolu reported.

Anadolu reported that the Yemen Panel of Experts’ mandate was extended through Dec. 15, 2027. The panel monitors sanctions and reports on them.

The resolution also censured Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia by sea and across its border, along with threats to commercial vessels, Anadolu reported. Anadolu separately said clashes between Yemeni government forces and the Houthis resumed in July, ending a period of relative calm that had lasted since April 2022.
