🕌 Houthis Seize Red Sea Coast — US Refuses to Help Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia faces what analysts call a "humiliating dilemma" after Washington refused to intervene militarily against Houthi forces, who have seized Yemen's entire Red Sea coastline and tightened their blockade of the kingdom's key backup maritime trade route with Asia.

President Trump dismissed the Houthi seizure on September 12, saying it was a problem that "only affects one country." Iran has separately blockaded the Strait of Hormuz, Saudi Arabia's main route for oil and petrochemical exports — leaving Riyadh with both its primary and backup maritime corridors under threat simultaneously.

The twin blockades represent a significant strategic squeeze on the Gulf kingdom, with no US military commitment to relieve either pressure point.

🇨🇳 China Presses Iran To Curb Houthi Advance After Saudi Appeal

China has privately urged Tehran to help restrain Yemen's Houthis following a direct appeal from Saudi Arabia to Beijing, three Iranian sources told Reuters.

Riyadh turned to China after the Houthis made rapid advances along the Red Sea coast and around the Bab el-Mandeb Strait over the past week — moves that have left Saudi oil exports and regional shipping more exposed. Beijing's intervention reflects its growing role as a diplomatic broker between Riyadh and Tehran.

🇮🇷 UN Finds Grounds for US War Crimes in Iran School Strike

A UN fact-finding mission said Thursday it has "reasonable grounds" to believe the United States committed war crimes in Iran, including strikes on a school in the southern city of Minab and a sports facility in February that killed over 150 people.

The mission, set to present its findings to the Human Rights Council on Monday, also found that Iranian authorities committed crimes against humanity during their deadly crackdown on anti-government protests. Investigators urged the council's 47 member states to press for an end to the war and hold those responsible to account.

🇺🇸 US-China Experts Propose Nuclear-Style AI Safeguards

Security experts from the US and China have proposed nuclear-style safeguards to manage AI risks, including human oversight of consequential cyberattacks and a dedicated hotline for incidents involving autonomous AI systems.

The proposals, which neither government has endorsed, come ahead of a meeting between President Trump and President Xi. Experts warn that an AI system interfering with a nuclear command network or launching a military cyber operation could leave Washington or Beijing with minutes to determine whether the other side attacked.

The initiative reflects growing concern that autonomous AI could trigger unintended escalation between the world's two largest military powers.

🏛 Kosovo Ex-President Thaçi Jailed 25 Years for War Crimes

The Kosovo Specialist Chambers in The Hague sentenced former president Hashim Thaçi to 25 years in prison for war crimes, triggering mass protests in the capital Pristina.

Supporters of Thaçi took to the streets, chanting and clashing with police following the verdict. Thaçi, who led the Kosovo Liberation Army during the 1990s conflict, had been on trial at the internationally backed court since 2020.

The sentence is one of the most significant war crimes convictions linked to the Balkans conflicts of the 1990s, and the reaction on the streets underscores the deep political divide the case has exposed within Kosovo.

🇨🇳 UN Peacekeeping Chief Turns to China as US Cuts Funding

The shift signals a potential realignment in how the UN funds and sustains its peacekeeping operations, with Beijing positioned to fill the gap left by US withdrawals.
