Iran has Proxies All Over West Asia: Can Saudi Arabia Play Peacemaker? | Vantage with Palki Sharma

The Iranian attack on Israel has the potential to upend the entire region of West Asia. If a war breaks out, where do the major regional players stand? Iran has proxies and allies all over West Asia. Hezbollah is based in Lebanon, just across Israel’s northern border. There are Iran-backed militias in Syria and Iraq. And there are the Houthis in Yemen, who have access to drones that can reach southern Israel. Directly or Indirectly, these nations would end up siding with Iran in the event of a war. On the other side, you have the Arab nations. Jordan helped defend Israel last night. And will the leading Arab state, Saudi Arabia, end up playing peacemaker?
