US-Israel-Iran War Latest Live News: The US-Israel-Iran row is moving into a new and even more complex stage as the military pressure moves far outside Iranian borders. In observance of the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks, the US President, Donald Trump, said once again that Iran will “never, ever have a nuclear weapon,” thus connecting the ongoing efforts with Washington’s national security policy. Trump delivered his statement at an event at the Pentagon to honor the memory of the nearly 3,000 people who perished in the attacks in 2001. At the same time, Iranian proxies are winning territory in Yemen, while Israel fights Hezbollah facilities in southern Lebanon.
US-Israel-Iran War Latest Live News: Trump Draws a Firm Nuclear Red Line
The most recent threat from Trump leaves no doubt about the aim of Washington as US President Trump has been emphasizing on several occasions that the main goal of this war lies in preventing Iran from getting nuclear weapons. This goal has very significant implications because this war is no longer about the conflict between the US and Iran. War and disruption have now started to affect the shipping lines, the energy market and the armed militias linked to Iran in the region of the Middle East.
“We salute the service members working right now to ensure the world’s number one sponsor of terror, the Islamist Republic of Iran, will never, ever have a nuclear weapon,” Trump said.
US-Israel-Iran War Latest Live News: Iran Welcomes Houthi Gains in the Red Sea
The Iranian authorities are openly rejoicing over the recent gains made by the Houthis in Yemen and this was expressed by Ebrahim Azizi, who is the head of Iran’s parliamentary national security commission, when he talked about what he called resistance by Yemen against “imperial” forces. This came after the Houthis had launched a swift offensive on the Yemen coast bordering the Red Sea. In addition to capturing the strategically placed port of Mocha, they have advanced towards islands near the Bab el-Mandeb strait.
In a post on X, Ebrahim Azizi said: “In an era where some regional rulers trade sovereignty for empty promises, Yemen stands alone against imperial hegemony on behalf of the entire region.”
US-Israel-Iran War Latest Live News: Red Sea Crisis Raises Global Economic Risks
The advances of the Houthi rebels hold importance far beyond that of Yemen as the Bab el-Mandeb connects the Red Sea with the Gulf of Aden and is vital for global trade from Europe to Asia. The unrest has already had an impact on the energy market. At one point, the price of Brent crude touched nearly $110 per barrel due to worries about the safety of supply routes in the region while over 46,000 people have been displaced by the current unrest in Yemen.
“Yemen’s defiance serves as proof that sovereignty is not for sale” Azizi said.
He warned that Iran’s allies will respond, saying “Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Iraqi Resistance will unveil their decisive response at the appointed hour as well.”

In the meantime, there is military pressure exerted by Israel on Hezbollah in southern Lebanon. According to the reports, Israeli troops claim that they destroyed an underground complex of Hezbollah in Ali al-Taher ridge, which consists of a weapons storage area, headquarters and tunnels of almost 2 kilometers in length. New Israeli airstrikes have reportedly taken place in the vicinity of Nabatieh al-Fawqa. All this happened despite the US-backed plan aimed at decreasing violence.

One of the most alarming aspects of this ongoing crisis is the ever-broadening geographical scope of the conflict while Washington worries about Iranian plans for developing their nuclear weapons program, Israel is determined to stop Hezbollah from rebuilding and Iran’s regional partners are opening new fronts in key chokepoints. Humanitarian costs are rising as well.
According to the data presented in the latest report, 8,920 people died and 30,595 were injured in Israeli strikes during the period of October 2023 and September 2026. At the moment, each new front is complicating diplomatic efforts, this is no longer a war and this is a network of inter-connected conflicts that stretches from Iran and the Gulf to Yemen and southern Lebanon.
