Saudi Arabia has also come under missile and drone attacks, with airports, military sites and energy infrastructure increasingly exposed.We examine what the escalation means for Saudi Arabia, the Red Sea, global oil supplies and the wider US-Iran war, particularly as the Strait of Hormuz remains contested and a growing share of Gulf oil exports is being rerouted through alternative routes.The episode also covers the latest developments in Trump’s Iran decision, US military pressure, Iran’s position on negotiations, the RAF Fairford terror plot in Britain, attacks on commercial shipping, and the growing legal dispute over the US blockade of Iran and freedom of navigation through the Strait of Hormuz.With the war expanding across multiple fronts, the question is becoming harder to ignore: is Yemen becoming the next major front in the US-Iran conflict?Listen to Epic Fury for a daily, independent briefing on the US-Iran war, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, the Houthis, the Red Sea, Strait of Hormuz, oil markets, geopolitics and the global impact of the conflict.
