- Description
- Some call it the Gate of Tears.
Bab al-Mandab in the Red Sea wields importance as a global shipping artery.
This week, Iran's Revolutionary Guard threatened to use the strait as its next front in the war with the US.
It says regional energy exports are 'either for everyone or for no one'.
Such a move would mean relying on its Houthi allies in Yemen to block the shipping route.
Iran's warning comes amid an escalation with the US, which has endangered last month's agreement.
What would it mean for a volatile region -- and the global economy?
Presenter: Sami Zeidan
Guests:
Ali Ahmadi -- Executive Fellow at the Geneva Centre for Security Policy
Ian Ralby -- Senior Fellow at the Center for Maritime Strategy
Farea Al Muslimi -- Research Fellow at the Middle East and North Africa Programme at Chatham House

- Description
- US strikes have targeted military infrastructure on Greater Tunb, one of three disputed islands in the Strait of Hormuz claimed by both Iran and the UAE.
Washington says the strikes hit cruise missile storage and coastal defence systems, aiming to curb Iran's ability to threaten shipping in the vital waterway.
The islands, Greater Tunb, Lesser Tunb and Abu Musa, have been under Iranian control since 1971, despite claims from the UAE's Sharjah and Ras al-Khaimah emirates.
Their strategic position, roughly 70 kilometres from Iran's coast, allows Tehran to monitor and threaten one of the world's busiest shipping routes.
Al Jazeera’s Lina Abu Akleh explains.

- Description
- In an interview with Al Jazeera, Alon Pinkas, former Israeli ambassador and consul general in New York, described Vice President JD Vance's accusations against Israel as "unprecedented in their severity." Vance had accused Israel of running a campaign to undermine US policy and torpedo the US-Iran agreement. Pinkas said no sitting US vice president or president has ever accused Israel of such actions.
Pinkas noted that Vance's remarks come against a background of MAGA movement figures accusing Netanyahu of dragging the US into war and manipulating President Trump. He said Vance was likely referring to a pro-Israel digital advocacy campaign run by former Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale, but noted the accusation is broader than one campaign. Pinkas suggested Vance's comments could be a warning to Netanyahu ahead of a potential visit to Washington. He also highlighted a tectonic shift in US public opinion, with polls showing Americans increasingly indifferent to the US-Israel a...

- Date posted
- 17 days ago
- Description
- An undercover investigation by Al Jazeera reveals how western donors evade charity law to provide aid to illegal Israeli settlements.
Since October 7, 2023, Israel has killed more than 1,000 Palestinians in the West Bank. More than 230 of them are children. Attacks by settlers on rural Palestinian communities have increased, destroying property and capturing livestock, driving families from their homes. At the same time, the Israeli military has launched a large-scale assault on the densely populated Jenin refugee camp.
This film provides a comprehensive picture of the tactics the Israeli government uses to support the settlers and then, through infrastructure and building programmes, annex Palestinian land.
Western governments claim to oppose Israel’s occupation of the West Bank and uphold international law. However, undercover reporters from Al Jazeera expose how donors based in some Western countries fund the expansion of illegal settlements.

- Description
- Russian motorists are increasingly converting their vehicles to run on liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) as fuel shortages caused by Ukrainian strikes on oil refineries drive long queues at petrol stations. Workshops report demand has surged fivefold, with waiting lists of around two weeks for the roughly $2,000 conversion. LPG costs half the price of petrol and burns cleaner, though converted engines lose some power and the extra tank reduces boot space.

- Description
- Lebanon and Israel have held a sixth round of US-mediated talks in Rome, focused on Israel's withdrawal from so-called "pilot zones" in southern Lebanon. While both sides describe the discussions as positive, disputes remain over verification procedures and Israel's demand for direct involvement in confirming the Lebanese army has cleared areas of Hezbollah fighters and weapons. Many in Lebanon, particularly within the Shia community, fear the agreement could take up to two years to implement or may never materialise, as Israeli military activity, including shelling and arson in southern villages, continues despite the talks.

- Description
- This is America, and this is the White House. It's from here that President Donald Trump has launched a new wave of strikes on Iran and has reimposed the blockade on Iranian ports. Is the president escalating a war that was supposed to be winding down, or is he simply trying to force Tehran back to the bargaining table on his terms?
Donald Trump often frames power dynamics as a simple balance: which side holds the cards? With Iran, the US Commander in Chief of the world's most powerful military is finding out that a strong hand isn't necessarily the same as a winning one. And somewhere in the middle here sits a ceasefire agreement that both sides now read differently, with 90 million Iranians in a global economy waiting to find out what happens next.
Four months into a war that Donald Trump said would take just a few weeks, he appears to be betting on escalation. At the centre of the crisis is a fragile ceasefire that Washington and Tehran interpret in very di...

- Description
- Three weeks after devastating earthquakes struck Venezuela, rescue operations are winding down as authorities begin the long task of rebuilding shattered communities. Many families remain displaced and uncertain about their future, with some saying they have received little information beyond damage assessments of their homes. While government crews have started repairing some state-sponsored housing in La Guaira, many survivors fear it could take years before they can return home. International search-and-rescue teams have largely departed, leaving humanitarian organisations to provide food, medical care and other essential support as recovery enters a new phase.
Al Jazeera's Noris Soto reports from La Guaira, one of the regions hardest hit by the earthquakes.
