00:28Tensions in the middle
00:29East are rising again. And now a new front is issuing a warning. Yemen says it is ready to escalate
00:38militarily if the United States and Israel resume war against Iran, a statement that signals this conflict could widen even
00:49further.
00:49In an official declaration, Yemen's foreign ministry made its position clear. If aggression against Iran returns, Yemen will not stay
01:00on the sidelines. It will actively participate and escalate.
01:05This is not just rhetoric. It's a direct message that any renewed war could trigger a broader regional response.
01:14Yemen is also warning about the global consequences, saying any escalation, especially at sea, would impact supply chains, energy prices,
01:26and the global economy.
01:28Because at the center of this crisis is the Strait of Hormuz, a choke point through which nearly a fifth
01:36of the world's oil passes. Any disruption here is felt worldwide.
01:41And that's exactly where tensions are building, after Donald Trump announced plans for a naval blockade of Iran from 10
01:50a.m. ET, saying U.S. forces would begin stopping ships and clearing what he called Iranian sea mines.
01:58Iran has already pushed back strongly. Its parliament speaker, Mohammed Bakr Galibov, warning that threats will not work, and that
02:08Iran will respond to war with war.
02:12Now, Yemen is adding its voice, linking its position directly to what it calls the axis of resistance, and signaling
02:20that any attack on Iran will not remain contained.
02:24The warning also comes after failed negotiations in Islamabad. More than 21 hours of talks ending without a deal. Iran
02:35blaming the U.S. for excessive demands. The U.S. blaming Iran for rejecting key conditions.
02:42For Yemen, this is proof that Washington is trying to achieve through negotiations what it failed to achieve in war.
02:51And now, with diplomacy stalled, the risk of escalation grows. Because if conflict resumes, it may not just be the
03:01U.S. and Iran. It could involve multiple actors across the region.
03:06The message from Yemen is clear. War will not stay limited, and the consequences will go far beyond the battlefield.
