Middle East morning field memo

Daily situation report

Gaza aid cuts and disputed fighting in Yemen

OCHA warned that Gaza food assistance will shrink as funding, access and equipment shortages compound flood, water and health risks; it also documented displacement and settler violence in the West Bank. In Yemen, a Houthi spokesperson denied government advances and claimed more than 200 opposing casualties, without independent confirmation in the supplied report. Iran’s armed-forces chief separately issued conditional threats against US interests and Israel, underscoring escalation risk rather than reporting a new attack.
