These strikes occurred while the United Nations mission to support the Hudaydah agreement -Created in 2018 to support the ceasefire between the government of Yemen and the Houthis-patrolled in places in the northern parts of the port.
The secretary general also expressed a deep concern about missiles and drones of drones led by Houthis against Israel.
Risk of new escalation
Concerned about the risk of a new escalation, the UN recalled that international law, as well as international humanitarian law, should be respected by all parties at any time, including the obligations to respect and protect civil infrastructure.
“The secretary general remains deeply concerned about the risk of a new escalation in the region,” said Dujarric.
While the UN chief reiterated his call for “all the persons involved in ceasing all military actions and to exercise maximum reservoir”, he also renewed his appeal to the immediate and unconditional liberation of all the United Nations and other members of the staff arbitrarily detained by the Houthi authorities.
Sudan: the crisis is getting worse while cholera and floods must be higher
The humanitarian crisis in Sudan continues to deepen as cholera spreads, flooding moves communities and thousands of people return to areas without support, according to the United Nations Bureau for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (Ochha).
In the locality of Tawiola, in the state of Darfur du Nord, more than 1,300 confirmed cases of cholera in just a week were reported on Sunday by an association of Sudanese doctors.
Although local and international partners have set up cholera treatment centers, the current capacity is far from sufficient to deal with the increasing workload.
While Tawila welcomes several hundred thousand displaced people, the partners in the field have trouble keeping the pace of increasing needs, especially as such needs should increase as the next rainy season sets up.
Vulnerable return
Everywhere in Sudan, people who return to their communities are faced with serious challenges, including the lack of essential services and the threat posed by the explosive remains of the war.
In the state of the white Nile, some residents began to come back after being moved for a year. However, an evaluation of the OCHA and its partners last week revealed that health, water, sanitation and hygiene support are urgently necessary, even more before the rainy season.
Likewise, in East Sudan, OCHA warns that many families returning to the state of Kassala have trouble facing the impact of heavy rains and floods, while heavy rains destroyed more than 280 houses in the village of Tirik earlier in July.
In addition, while insecurity continues to interfere with the work of humanitarian workers, the challenges faced by repatriated families often lead them to return to travel sites, undergoing the sustainability of return efforts.
In this context, the OCHA called for increased international support to meet the arrow needs of Sudan.
Ukraine: at least 20 civilians would have been killed in recent attacks

In Kyiv, a kindergarten, metro stations, stores and residential buildings was affected.
The Ivano-Frakivsk region in western Ukraine, which welcomed many displaced people and had been less affected by hostilities, suffered the greatest attack since the Russian invasion on a large scale in February 2022.
First line regions
Meanwhile, in areas close to the fronts of the Donetsk, Dnipro and Kherson regions, hostilities have caused civilian victims and other damage to schools, a health facility and apartments. Odesa, Kharkiv, Sumy and other regions also said that houses and stores had been destroyed.
With the support of the United Nations agencies and coordination with local authorities and first respondents, humanitarian organizations in the field continue to provide shelter equipment, non -food articles, legal aid, psychosocial support and assistance to children across the country.
