LONDON -- The current situation is too complex to be summarized in a few brief points, as what is unfolding goes far beyond a direct military confrontation between the United States and Israel on one side, and Iran and its allies on the other.
TEHRAN – Yemen’s “recognized” government has international backing but was not elected, has no money of its own, and no control over its own forces.
TEHRAN – Failing to protect itself and its proxies in southern Yemen, Saudi Arbia has turned to an American-AI generated system to unsuccessfully counter Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF), also known as Ansarallah.
The Iran newspaper argued that Saudi Arabia misjudged Iran’s broader strategy and the Axis of Resistance regarding Yemen. Riyadh imagined that military action against Yemen would weaken Iran. Instead, the conflict evolved into a strategic advantage for Tehran. Through careful management and without assuming direct control, Iran benefited from developments in Yemen.
TEHRAN – The Israeli strategy in Yemen centers on exploiting the war between Saudi Arabia and the Sanaa government to establish a new reality.
TEHRAN — Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has used a series of diplomatic meetings in Baghdad to press for an end to military escalation in West Asia, outline Iran’s conditions for restoring security in the Strait of Hormuz and call for a more active role for the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) in addressing disputes among Muslim countries.
TEHRAN – Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi told the 52nd Council of Foreign Ministers of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation in Baghdad that lasting security in the region is indivisible: either states build security together, or they will endure insecurity together.
Saudi Arabia’s bid to “contain” the Ansarallah in Yemen while doubling down on economic growth at home is collapsing, posing one of the most serious tests for Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman since he rose to power, according to analysts and diplomats.
TEHRAN - Saudi Arabia spends tens of billions of dollars on arms every year, but is struggling to protect key assets such as airports, refineries and pipelines from missiles and drones fired by Ansarallah, also called the Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF).
TEHRAN – Saudi Arabia is once again testing its options for dealing with Ansarallah, hoping that what failed the first time might succeed the next.
