Lt. Col. Anthony Aguilar: Yemeni Missile Hit on Sharorah Airport; Gulf States Brace for Fallout
Published 1 week, 5 days ago
Description
This interview analyzes the escalating Yemen conflict and its global impact. Ansar Allah has launched a highly successful offensive, securing the Red Sea coast, critical islands like Mayun, and threatening Aden, gaining strategic control over the Bab el-Mandeb strait. Concurrently, drone strikes on Saudi Arabia’s East-West pipeline have halted operations, driving global diesel and oil prices to unsustainable levels. The discussion highlights the failure of airstrikes to stop this momentum, forcing the US and Saudi Arabia into a difficult dilemma: commit ground forces and risk deeper escalation, or face severe economic fallout and a shifting Middle East geopolitical order. Ansar Allah’s advanced, homegrown missile and air defense capabilities prove they are a formidable force demanding serious strategic reassessment.
