Description

One year after adopting a text demanding that the Houthis immediately cease all attacks on merchant and commercial vessels in the Red Sea, the Security Council today reiterated that demand in a new resolution and called for ongoing monitoring of the situation as these attacks continue with increasing sophistication. 

Adopting resolution 2768 (2025) (to be issued as document S/RES/2768(2025)) by a vote of 12 in favour to none against, with 3 abstentions (Algeria, China, Russian Federation), the Council extended, until 15 July 2025, its request that the Secretary-General provide it with written monthly reports on Houthi attacks on merchant and commercial vessels in the Red Sea. 

It also reiterated its demand that the Houthis immediately cease such attacks and release the Galaxy Leader and its crew.
