IPSEs IN THE LAST 24H
  • Ursula von der Leyen
    Ursula von der Leyen “I am following the situation in Georgia with great concern and condemn the violence on the streets of Tbilisi. The European Union has also clearly expressed its concerns regarding the law on foreign influence. The Georgian people want a European future for their country.” 14 hours ago
  • Oleksandr Kozachenko
    Oleksandr Kozachenko “If we compare it with the beginning (of the Russian invasion), when we fired up to 100 shells a day, then now, when we fire 30 shells it's a luxury. Sometimes the number of shells fired daily is in single digits.” 14 hours ago
  • Abdallah al-Dardari

“I think it's just strategic exhaustion, the Houthis for a long time have felt that their success was inevitable, but they had a huge setback in Marib [city], which has been besieged for over a year… At the same time, you see an expansion into Saudi Arabia and Abu Dhabi…I think both sides realised, this war is not going the way we want to, maybe we're going to have to settle for half a loaf.”

“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.”

“Most of the fighters advancing towards Marib are from Marib province. [The Houthis] are mainly using fighters from the area that they are going to liberate, and this sends a good message. If all the people there were against the [Houthis], I don't think they could advance one metre.”

“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.”
