Gulf monarchs gathered today for an extraordinary summit amid growing international concern over the Saudi-led airstrikes against Shiite rebels in Yemen and a deepening regional threat from the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS).

Yemeni President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi also attended the summit as the rebels advance on his southern refuge of Aden.
