UN Security Council Convenes Emergency Session on Yemen Crisis

The United Nations Security Council will convene an emergency session on Monday, July 13, 2026, to discuss the latest political and field developments concerning Yemen.

The session was called in response to a request submitted by Yemen's Permanent Mission to the UN, which received support from the British and Bahraini missions. The agenda is expected to include a comprehensive review of recent events in Yemen, with a particular focus on mutual threats and their potential repercussions on the humanitarian and security situation within the country.

This call for a session comes at a time of increasing complexity in the Yemeni crisis and growing concerns about the impact of regional developments on the path to internal peace. The meeting coincides with escalating international calls to support efforts aimed at achieving a peaceful resolution and ending the ongoing conflict.

Security Council members are anticipated to deliberate on strategies for addressing the current developments and ways to bolster initiatives toward a comprehensive political settlement that concludes the Yemeni crisis and establishes a stable future for the nation.
