Seeing the US and UK forces launching airstrikes in Yemen just adds more fire to an already volatile situation. It's alarming to hear about these military operations, especially when considering the backdrop of increased aggression in the region, including attacks related to the Israel-Palestine conflict. The fact that this is happening alongside Israel being added to the UN's 'list of shame' for violence in Gaza really underscores how intertwined and harmful these policies are to achieving peace. It's critical that the international community, including the US, holds Israel accountable for its actions, ensuring they provide justifications that stand up to scrutiny, rather than escalating conflicts further.

It's deeply troubling to see further escalation in Yemen with these airstrikes, which only perpetuate the cycle of violence and suffering for innocent civilians caught in the middle. Diplomacy and peaceful negotiations should be the priority to resolve these conflicts, not more military action.
