AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Red Sea Security: Iran-backed Houthis have seized Yemen’s Perim (Mayyun) island and the town of Dhubab after taking Mocha, tightening control inside the Bab el-Mandeb chokepoint that borders Djibouti and Eritrea—raising fears of higher freight costs and fuel prices for the Djibouti-Ethiopia corridor. Shipping Disruption Watch: Multiple reports say the Houthis are positioning for “full control” of the strait, while analysts warn that even without a full closure, war-risk premiums and rerouting can hit imports fast. Tech and Weapons: Anthropic says a Houthi-linked cell used its Claude AI to help develop ballistic missile guidance and software, underscoring the group’s growing technical reach. Regional Diplomacy: Eritrea’s foreign minister Osman Saleh told Middle East Eye there is “no military solution” in Yemen and urged littoral states to manage navigation amid a fragmented Yemen. Local and Regional Signals: Djibouti will sign the Artemis Accords at NASA on Sept. 14, while Ethiopia’s logistics push continues with China-backed expansion of Mojo Dry Port. Migration Update: IOM reports 1,628 Ethiopian migrants returned to Djibouti from Yemen in August, up from July.
