DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — UN says it suspends all movement into territory held by Yemen's Houthi rebels after more staffers detained. Sean Hepburn Ferrer, the son of the late Audrey Hepburn, shared his thoughts on Ivanka Trump wearing a dress originally designed for his mom to Donald Trump’s 2025 Inaugural Ball.

The move will authorize harsher penalties on the Iran-backed group, which has attacked Israel and disrupted global shipping trade in the Red Sea for over a year.

The United Nations has halted all travel into Houthi-held areas in Yemen after additional staff were detained. The ongoing conflict, exacerbated by the detention of UN personnel and others, poses severe humanitarian challenges.

All official movement of U.N. staff into or within Houth-held areas had been suspended to protect the safety of staff. The U.N. was actively engaging with senior Houthi representatives to demand the immediate and unconditional release of all its detained personnel and partners.
