Global Intelligence Briefing | 9 July: Could the Houthis disrupt Red Sea shipping again?

This week’s Global Intelligence Briefing examines Peru’s state of emergency ahead of the expected impacts of El Niño, Ukraine’s worsening shortage of air defence interceptors, and the most significant escalation between the United States and Iran since their memorandum of understanding was signed. We also assess the latest bombings in central Damascus, rising tensions between Saudi Arabia and Yemen’s Houthi movement, a renewed offensive by separatist and Islamist groups in northern Mali, severe flooding in Bangladesh, and a nationwide telecommunications outage in Australia that exposed vulnerabilities in critical infrastructure.
