US, UK Weapons In Yemen
According to a recent report by Oxfam Charity, the weapons used by the Saudi-led war in Yemen are supplied solely by the US and the UK, at least the ones used since the start of 2021.
The UK government has even admitted to the central role its arms are playing in the killing of Yemeni civilians. Not all of the blame lays on the UK, however. While a sizeable portion of the Saudi arms imports is procured through the UK, the rest of it comes from the US.

US Fresh Sanctions On Iran
The United States has slapped a new set of sanctions against Iran, accusing the Islamic Republic of sending drones to Russia.

Can regime change be an option? Iran has been targeted by US sanctions now for over 40 years. But not only such measures have failed to bring the Islamic Republic to its knees, facts on the ground indicate that sanctions have granted Tehran the opportunity to diversify its options in terms of economy, military capabilities, and science.
