How the Iran war is squeezing Pakistan, Turkey and Egypt from every direction (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The war on Iran has turned the region’s shipping map into a weapon. Every extra day of tension around Hormuz, every skirmish near Bab al-Mandeb, every convoy rerouted around the Cape of Good Hope instead of Suez - each adds a small charge to fuel bills, food prices and currencies. Less discussed is that the three countries absorbing some of the worst of these shocks - Pakistan, Turkey and Egypt - are simultaneously managing tensions on their own borders, with India, Greece and Israel respectivel
Netanyahu 'offers Israeli services' in 'comprehensive war' against Houthis, says report (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has offered "Israel’s services" to countries in the Arabian Peninsula and has expressed a willingness to participate in a “comprehensive war” against Ansar Allah, the Houthi movement in Yemen, Lebanese media have reported.

Saudi Arabia-backed government forces said they targeted Houthi positions with rocket and drone strikes as “intensive battles” were ongoing with ground troops in Taiz, Bayda, and Jawf, a province seen as a key gateway to the capital, Sanaa. Yemen’s Deputy Defence Minister Major General Samir al-Sabri told state television the government had
Is Yemen's endless war serving a US-Israeli agenda? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For years, the war in Yemen has not been a conflict in search of a victor. It has become a struggle in which every side seeks to degrade their opponents, without achieving a victory the wider region cannot absorb. This makes Yemen an ideal test of an idea advanced by US strategist Edward Luttwak in his 1999 essay “Give War a Chance”, later applied to Syria in 2013: not every cessation of war constitutes peace, and not every victory produces a desirable outcome. Sometimes the strategic interest l
