Iran's Foreign Minister, Abbas Araghchi, has emphasized that there is no military solution to the ongoing conflict between Saudi Arabia and the Houthi rebels in Yemen. Araghchi, in an interview with Iran Daily, advocated for dialogue, distancing Iran from the conflict and attributing it to longstanding regional disputes. The conflict reignited after a period of relative calm since a UN-brokered truce in 2022, with the Houthis recently imposing a blockade on Saudi ports. This blockade has raised concerns over Saudi Arabia's ability to maintain its supply routes amidst Iran's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.

TEHRAN, July 25 — Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said today there was no military solution to the escalating conflict between Saudi Arabia and the Tehran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen after both sides traded attacks.
“We believe that there is no military solution to the issue of Yemen, Bab al-Mandab, and other regional issues,” said Araghchi in an interview published today by the state-run Iran Daily newspaper, calling for “dialogue”.
He said the situation in Yemen “cannot be attributed to Iran” and that the incidents occurring in the area of the Bab al-Mandab Strait were “rooted in old disputes and issues between Yemen, Saudi Arabia and the countries of the region”.
Renewed conflict between the Houthis in Yemen and Saudi Arabia — which had largely been frozen since a UN-negotiated truce in 2022 — flared up this month with the Tehran-backed rebels declaring a blockade of Saudi ports and claiming attacks on tankers.
The blockade has threatened Saudi Arabia’s ability to get its supplies to the world following Iran’s parallel blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, the kingdom’s only other maritime route.
Yesterday, a Houthi spokesman said the rebels were not blocking traffic through the Bab al-Mandeb Strait and that the maritime blockade “only affects the Saudi side”. — AFP
