“Even if the U.N.-led process does move forward, it would likely lead to essentially an agreement between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis that doesn't solve the underlying conflict between the Houthis and the anti-Houthi forces.”

“We intend to take additional strikes, and additional action, to continue to send a clear message that the United States will respond when our forces are attacked, when our people are killed.”

“Whether the strikes will in fact deter further attacks on shipping will depend on how the Houthis respond. Is this the hill they want to die on? They were doing well, they have been able to survive the last eight years, have expanded their power, but now they are inviting air strikes from the world's most powerful military.”

“Tehran has been a thoroughly malign influence in the region and in the world. You've got the Houthis, you've got Hezbollah, you've got the Iranian-backed militias in Iraq that have actually been attacking British and American bases, troops. And, of course, Hamas. So you've got all of these proxies, and I think it's incredibly important that, first of all, Iran receives an incredibly clear message that this escalation will not be tolerated.”

“We know that Iran was deeply involved in planning the operations against commercial vessels in the Red Sea. This is consistent with Iran's long-term material support and encouragement of the Houthis' destabilising actions in the region. This is an international challenge that demands collective action.”

“The Houthi - and by extension their main military backer Iran - are probably using their strike capability in the Red Sea to further exercise greater geopolitical influence in the region, in addition to influence on Israel's war in Gaza.”

“Recent Houthi advances in and around Marib were posing a growing threat to [the UAE's] interests; this led the UAE to push the [UAE-backed] Giants Brigades to move from the west coast, where they are based, and to confront Houthi advances. The UAE was careful not to lose face, but I would expect that in the future, they will try to avoid direct and large scale confrontation, as much as possible, between militias it supports and the Houthis. It will try to continue focusing on building influence in the south, and avoid confrontation with the Houthis. But that is a difficult balance to strike.”

“The Pentagon deployment to the UAE is primarily aimed at securing US assets in the country and not necessarily meant to meaningfully help with protecting the Emirates from Houthi drone or ballistic missile fire. The gesture of support does not mean a renewed emphasis on the region by Washington. The United States has no interest in getting sucked back into a conflict in the Middle East, especially not in Yemen.”

“Upgrading economic cooperation will be a key priority of the trip. Russia will also use the trip to facilitate a return to the Iran nuclear deal. Cooperation on regional security issues will also feature, as Moscow highlights its Gulf security plan and planned trilateral drills with China and Iran. On Syria, Afghanistan and Yemen, Russia and Iran are likely to hold consultations, and we should watch in particular for their responses to the humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan and the Houthi strike on the UAE.”

“This attack brings home to the UAE that they were playing the game of a major power in the region. It made the Gulf country realise that they are, after all a small state with a lot of vulnerabilities. This [the incident] is the greatest damage to the reputation of the UAE because they have always portrayed themselves as a safe and secure country to do business. All their [Emirati] foreign policy adventures have brought home that they are quite vulnerable to unconventional and asymmetric threats from different groups they're fighting across the region. Despite claiming to have the most sophisticated air defences in the region, a drone from Yemen has landed at a strategic site in Abu Dhabi. This insecurity has been brought upon them by their own adventures … as unfinished wars now come back to haunt them.”

“The internally displaced people are suffering. Many of the families have been forced to live out in the open without proper shelter in terrible conditions; they lack the most basic needs, such as shelter, food, water, and educational facilities. Government forces in Rahabah, along with their allies, were unorganised. The main tribes fighting with the government forces in Rahabah received limited support, while the Houthi forces were organised and well-supported.”

“If fighting moves towards populated areas or these displacement sites, we will see people flee again and towards locations to the east and south of Marib city with even less resources. Much of this is desert area so just think about what any displacement in that direction would mean for families' access to water.”

“An assault on the city [of Marib] would put two million civilians at risk, with hundreds of thousands potentially forced to flee - with unimaginable humanitarian consequences. Now is the time to de-escalate, not to add even more to the misery of the Yemeni people.”
