Iran criticized the recent airstrikes conducted by the United States and the United Kingdom in Yemen, stating that they contradict the two countries’ stated intention of avoiding further conflict in the Middle East. Iran accused the US and UK of exacerbating chaos, disorder, insecurity, and instability by supporting Israel in its conflict against Hamas militants in Gaza. The airstrikes in Yemen were in response to Houthi attacks in the Red Sea, which the rebels claim were carried out in solidarity with Palestinians in war-torn Gaza. Additionally, the US military had previously targeted locations in Syria and Iraq as a retaliation for a drone attack on a Jordanian base that resulted in the death of three American soldiers. While President Joe Biden attributed the attack to “radical Iran-backed militant groups,” he emphasized that the US does not seek a broader conflict in the region, stating that he is not looking for a wider war in the Middle East.
