Bab al-Mandab challenges Gulf-Iran ties

Iranian movements through the Houthis near the Bab al-Mandab Strait pose a serious test of the March 2023 agreement between Saudi Arabia and Iran, signed in Beijing, which aims to restore diplomatic relations and respect sovereignty. Reports indicate that experts from the Revolutionary Guards visited the area and supervised excavation work and radar activities, threatening Tehran's commitment to its promises and putting its credibility with China on the line. While analysts believe that the parties are still monitoring Iran's degree of compliance, they warn that supporting the Houthis and threatening navigation in the Red Sea constitute a blatant violation of the agreement. These actions reflect Iran's desire to expand its regional influence through its proxies. Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia calls for protecting its security and is prepared to confront these challenges in accordance with the United Nations Charter.
