Iran War, Week 4: Where Things Stand as Houthis Open New Front | DW News

Four weeks into the Iran war, the conflict is entering a dangerous new phase. In the past 24 hours, Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthi movement has launched its first strike on Israel since the war began, raising fears the war could expand even further across the Middle East.

What began as US and Israeli strikes on Iran has spread across the region, with attacks reported from Lebanon to the Gulf, and growing risks to global energy supplies through the Strait of Hormuz. In this report, we break down where the war stands now, and what could come next.

With oil prices rising and no clear diplomatic breakthrough, the question now is whether this conflict can be contained, or whether it will continue to widen.
