"Events in Yemen are escalating quickly and dramatically, reaching the point of armed clashes erupting between the Arab coalition supporting the internationally recognised government in Yemen, led by Saudi Arabia, and the socalled Southern Transitional Council (STC), backed by the United Arab Emirates. Many view these developments as a natural outcome of a long, cumulative trajectory of complexities the country has experienced since the civil war erupted in late 2014, and the humanitarian and economic repercussions that followed."
"External interventions had a profound impact in creating political and administrative chaos that intensified internal divisions and exposed what remained of the legitimate state to further weakness, culminating in the loss of its most important sovereign tools: unity of territory and decision-making. These developments and events add further complexity to an already complex picture, and Yemen will not be safe from their future repercussions."
Yemen is experiencing rapid escalation with armed clashes between the Saudi-led Arab coalition supporting the internationally recognised government and the UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC). External interventions have created political and administrative chaos, intensifying internal divisions and eroding state authority, including loss of territorial unity and centralized decision-making. The conflict follows a cumulative trajectory since the 2014 civil war, with severe humanitarian and economic repercussions. A strong reaction by the Yemeni president (chairman of the Presidential Leadership Council) and the Saudi-led coalition introduces a new variable that could correct past imbalances. Houthi rebels remain silent, observing and exploiting fractures within the coalition.
