The UN Security Council unanimously agreed Wednesday to renew its Yemeni sanctions mandate for another year.
The resolution allows targeted financial and travel ban measures on designated Yemeni individuals until Nov. 15, 2025.
The mandate for the Yemen Panel of Experts, responsible for monitoring and reporting on the sanctions, was also extended until Dec. 15, 2025, via the UK-submitted resolution.
UK's envoy Barbara Woodward emphasized that extending the sanctions was "crucial to rejuvenating the Yemeni peace process."
She said that it "sends a clear signal" from the Council to the Houthis, underlining its importance in curbing Houthi efforts to destabilize Yemen.
