Iran has called on the U.S. to halt its backing of Israel's military actions in Yemen, arguing that Israel seeks to sow discord between Iran and the U.S. amidst crucial nuclear negotiations. The recent Israeli airstrikes targeted the Houthi-controlled port of Hodeidah and Sana'a airport, drawing criticism from Yemen's internationally recognized government for being uncoordinated. Israel cites Iran's arming of the Houthis as justification for its actions, while Iran asserts that the Houthis operate independently. The tensions are escalating ahead of forthcoming negotiations regarding Iran's nuclear program, scheduled to resume shortly.
Iran has reiterated that the Houthi-led government acts independently, asserting that allegations of direct Iranian control are unfounded and an insult to Yemen's sovereignty.
The strikes on Yemen by Israel, which led to significant damage in Hodeidah and claims of civilian casualties, are part of a wider geopolitical conflict involving Iran.
