Three conditions conveyed already ran. Seven days, if already ran. 2 from 10 already ran. Kahboub already ran. The named projectile already ran. This is the unused Tuesday call.
Kremlin, Sept. 22, 15:05 / Reuters, Moscow, 12:57 p.m. UTC: President Vladimir Putin held a telephone conversation with Saudi Crown Prince and Prime Minister Mohammed bin Salman. The Kremlin: a detailed exchange on the Middle East, particularly the Gulf, and that there is no alternative to political and diplomatic efforts, taking into account the interests of all parties. In light of the deteriorating military and political situation in Yemen, they reaffirmed the need for an immediate cessation of hostilities and conditions for a constructive intra-Yemeni dialogue under UN auspices. They noted the importance of safe and unimpeded passage of vessels through international waterways, including the Bab-el-Mandeb and the Strait of Hormuz. They agreed to continue contacts. A readout is not a ceasefire. A named strait is not a transit.
Putin also congratulated the Crown Prince on the upcoming Founding Day, noting the USSR was the first foreign state to recognize the kingdom 100 years ago. That is protocol, not a barrel.
Al-Masirah / IRNA, via Cyprus Mail, Wednesday: Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree said the group shot down a Chinese-built Wing Loong II armed reconnaissance drone he claimed was Saudi, operating over Mocha on “hostile missions,” with an unspecified weapon. There was no immediate Saudi confirmation. A claim is not a wreck. We will not invent a serial number. Mocha already ran as a capture. Perim already ran. We will not reprint them as first-day news.
Monday’s two Hormuz commodity ships already ran. Bab’s 26 already ran. We will not smash a phone call into those counts.
What this means for you
If you needed last night’s three conditions, they were still conveyed. If you needed this morning’s unused international sentence, it is Putin–MbS, two straits named, a Yemen halt asked. If you needed the water open, this paper does not have it.
Bottom line: A call. Two straits named. Yemen halt asked, not held. Mocha drone is a claim. Not a reopening.
