A surge in violence in Yemen has seen Houthi forces seize land on
the Red Sea coast – reigniting a war with Saudi Arabia and
threatening a further global energy shock. The Iranian-aligned
group has increased its foothold in Yemen, now locked in civil war
for more than a decade, and launched drone attacks on Saudi oil
pipelines. With global trade still reeling from the crisis in the
Strait of Hormuz and Saudi Arabia’s allies in America constrained
by the ongoing Iran conflict, where next in the latest escalation
in the Middle East? Gavin Esler is joined by Dr Elisabeth Kendall,
expert on Yemen and the region and Mistress of Girton College,
Cambridge. • Support us on Patreon to keep This Is Not A Drill
