Yemen Faces New Conflict Risks
Yemen is gradually heading towards resuming a conflict that has been halted for over ten years, as Houthi attacks linked to Iran increase against Saudi facilities and oil shipments. This tests Riyadh's patience and the Yemeni government. While efforts led by the United Nations and Oman continue to mediate, the risks of Houthi escalation grow, especially after targeting a Saudi airport and imposing a naval blockade on the kingdom—actions that have been linked to attacks on Saudi oil tankers. The Houthi actions, supported by Iran, are deepening tensions in the region, with the group seeking to exert greater pressure on Saudi Arabia and the United States to achieve strategic interests. This comes amid a significant decline in prospects for a political solution and ongoing complications in the Yemeni scene.
