Egypt Caught Between Iran War and Houthi Threats

The ongoing conflict between the United States and Iran is hurting Egypt’s economy. Now, new threats from Yemen’s Houthi group threaten to make the situation worse. Egypt is trying to maintain good relations with all sides. This balancing act is becoming more difficult as the regional crisis deepens. The Houthis, a rebel group backed by Iran, have recently issued new warnings. These threats could disrupt shipping routes through the Red Sea, a vital channel for Egyptian trade. Any disruption would add to the economic strain Egypt already faces from the US-Iran war. For now, Egypt continues to walk a diplomatic tightrope. It must protect its own interests without angering any major power in the conflict.
