The United Nations Security Council unanimously adopted Resolution 2837 today, extending the sanctions regime related to Yemen until November 14, 2027.
The Security Council also approved the renewal of the mandate for the Yemen Expert Team, established under Resolution 2140 in 2014, until December 15, 2027. The resolution, proposed by the United Kingdom, calls for increasing the number of team members to six. It emphasizes the inclusion of specialized experts to review, monitor, and report on maritime security issues.
Under the resolution, all United Nations member states must freeze all funds, financial assets, and other economic resources located within their territories that belong to or are controlled by designated entities. This includes those acting on behalf of these entities or under their direction.
The resolution also reiterates the call for all member states to take necessary measures to prevent the entry of individuals identified by the sanctions committee into their territories.
The Security Council strongly condemned the military escalation by the Houthi militia, including maritime and cross-border attacks against Saudi Arabia and threats to commercial shipping vessels. The Council demanded that the Houthis immediately cease their military escalation and attacks unconditionally, particularly those targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure, including commercial airports and international maritime transport.
In the resolution, the Security Council urged member states to intensify efforts to combat arms smuggling and its components through land and sea routes. This includes improving information exchange among member states to ensure the enforcement of the arms embargo.
