Yemen’s president has asked US President Donald Trump for support in the escalating conflict with the Houthis, but no direct promise of military support has yet been given.

BBC security correspondent Frank Gardner is also in Djibouti, reporting on the growing humanitarian crisis in Yemen itself – and learns of the thousands of people fleeing across the sea to Djibouti.

We discuss the role energy concerns will play at the United Nations General Assembly, and the scrutiny President Trump is coming under as consumers globally face higher oil, gas and diesel prices.

And finally BBC Persian’s Bahman Kalbasi provides his insight into the delegation arriving in New York from Tehran, as world leaders meet at the United Nations General Assembly this week.
