Although Iran does not border the Bab al-Mandeb Strait, Yemen does, and Iran is closely allied with the Houthis, the Yemeni militant group that previously conducted dozens of strikes against Israel-linked vessels in the Red Sea in 2023 and 2024 in response to the war in Gaza.
At this point its almost as if Iran is enjoying themselves.
yes they love it because they dont feel the full pain of this war tucked safely away in their bunker. Thats all on their citizens who have to live their lives day to day.
