麻豆官网首页入口 Minute: On the war in Yemen - Proxy war?
麻豆官网首页入口 Minute talks to 麻豆官网首页入口 correspondent Nawal al-Maghafi about a conflict largely forgotten by the outside world: Yemen. The United Nations says the war which has raged since March 2015 has killed more than five thousand civilians, displaced more than three million people, and left more than seven million on the brink of famine.
In this episode, Nawal discusses why Saudi Arabia began its bombing campaign against Houthi targets in Yemen, and says the media鈥檚 portrayal of the war as merely one part of a regional power struggle between Tehran and Riyadh is sometimes exaggerated.
