Patrick Henningsen: BREAKING: Houthis Make Major Gains Around Taizz as Frontline Shifts

We analyze the massive escalation in Yemen as a Saudi-led coalition launches over 100 airstrikes. Despite the bombardment, Ansar Allah forces continue advancing, striking critical Saudi oil infrastructure and disrupting the Red Sea. We explore the broader geopolitical chessboard, revealing how the US and Israel use Gulf states to fund regional proxy wars. The discussion covers the conflict's spillover into the Horn of Africa, including civil wars in Ethiopia and Sudan. We also examine a potential US symbolic military operation in Oman to control the Strait of Hormuz ahead of upcoming elections, and unpack the sectarian information warfare designed to sustain endless conflicts. Tune in for a detailed breakdown of the shifting power dynamics in the Middle East.
