Former Yemen President Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi, who governed mostly from exile, dies at 80

Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi, Yemen's internationally recognized president-in-exile since 2015, died at 80 in Riyadh on Thursday. His decade of nominal rule — real decision-making held by Saudi Arabia and UAE coalition backers — signals persistent instability in Gulf energy and maritime corridors relevant to regional risk exposure.
