Somalia's Puntland Releases 26 Yemeni Fishermen
Hadramaut – The authorities of Somalia's Puntland State have released 26 Yemeni fishermen who had been detained earlier for entering Somali territorial waters without official permits—a move widely welcomed as a reflection of regional cooperation and humanitarian understanding. The fishermen had been held since May 14, 2025, while working aboard the fishing vessel 'Maymoon-1.' Their release came after intensive diplomatic efforts led by the Yemeni government, represented by the Ministries of Foreign Affairs and Fisheries, in coordination with local authorities in Hadramaut and the Yemeni Embassy in Mogadishu. Puntland's judicial authorities decided to waive all fines and return the confiscated fishing equipment, a decision described as 'a humanitarian act that highlights the historic bonds between the Somali and Yemeni peoples.' The fishermen arrived at the port of Al-Sheher on Sunday, June 8, where they were received by local officials and underwent medical checkups amid scenes of joy and relief.

Saudi Interior Ministry confirms sustained care, loyalty to martyrs' families during Hajj
The Ministry of Interior, through the Agency for Military Affairs, is supporting the families of deceased and injured armed forces personnel with a humanitarian program reflecting the leadership's commitment to citizens. A key part of the program enables relatives of martyrs and injured personnel to perform Hajj at the ministry's expense, along with providing psychological, medical and social care throughout the year. One beneficiary speaking from Mina, Ibrahim bin Abdulkarim Al-Zahrani — injured in the line of duty and brother to two martyrs — expressed his appreciation for the Kingdom's support. He said such care reassures families that the Kingdom stands by them and gives them strength to continue serving, a Saudi Press Agency report said. Al-Zahrani added that the ministry's efforts, under Minister of Interior Prince Abdulaziz bin Saud bin Naif, represent the state's respect for the sacrifices of martyrs and its commitment to their families. Chief Sgt. Salem Al-Qahtani of the General Department for the Care of Martyrs and Injured Families shared his 14-year experience serving the group, highlighting the department's close, familial bond with their families. 'We have followed the children of the martyrs since their early years, watching them grow — some are now our colleagues, while others are performing Hajj through this program under the leadership's close supervision,' he said. The department develops support programs for beneficiaries, demonstrating the Kingdom's commitment to honoring those who gave their lives for the nation and continuing support for their families.

Yemen to launch National Knowledge, Innovation Index amid Intel exclusions
Sana'a – Saba: Yemen is developing its own National Knowledge and Innovation Index (YKII), a strategic move aimed at accurately monitoring and directing the nation's capabilities in science, research, and technology. This initiative comes as Yemen has been largely excluded from or given low rankings in international indices, often due to perceived political considerations, according to Dr. Abdulaziz al-Houri, Vice Chairman of the General Authority for Science, Research, Technology and Innovation. Dr. al-Houri highlighted the urgent need for this national index, citing the absence of a comprehensive national framework for measuring knowledge and innovation, along with pressing economic and social challenges. The index is seen as crucial for supporting reconstruction and development, fostering cooperation between public and private sectors in research and development, encouraging investment, and keeping pace with global advancements. It will also enhance transparency, accountability, and the assessment of public policy impacts. The Authority is collaborating with partners, notably the Central Statistical Organization, to finalize the YKII's draft. This index will identify knowledge gaps in Yemeni society, guide efforts to bridge them through informed policies, and provide a national database for evidence-based decision-making. Expected Impact and Objectives: The project is anticipated to bring wide-ranging benefits, including: Improving education quality and outcomes to meet labor market and development needs. Increasing the quantity and quality of research output, enhancing its relevance to societal challenges. Stimulating innovation and creativity, and boosting competitiveness. Contributing to sustainable development goals by leveraging knowledge and innovation. Enhancing local competitiveness among educational, research, and production entities. The primary objectives of the index are to: Assess the current state of knowledge and innovation nationally. Measure and track scientific, technological, and innovative progress. Improve national and local innovation policies by identifying strengths and weaknesses. Provide reliable information for policymakers, researchers, investors, and stakeholders. Help re-prioritize efforts to encourage creativity, scientific research, and youth empowerment. Index Framework and Next Steps: The YKII's general framework comprises two main aspects: Innovation Inputs: This includes six axes with 42 indicators covering education, research and development, investment, the knowledge workforce, communications and information technology, and institutions. Innovation Outputs: This consists of three axes with 20 indicators focused on innovation, creativity, and knowledge. Dr. al-Houri detailed the steps taken so far, which include studying evidence for composite indicators, examining global and regional indices, developing a methodology, and preparing an initial draft guide. Current and future steps involve finalizing the draft, piloting and testing the index, obtaining official approval, and finally, the launch of the National Knowledge and Innovation Index 2025. Dr. al-Houri called upon all state institutions to enhance cooperation with the General Authority for Science, Research, Technology and Innovation, emphasizing its vital role in advancing innovation and creativity for Yemen's economic and social development.
