yemen imports 90% of its food. the blockade was eased slightly in december, but not enough food, medicines or humanitarian aid are coming through. these pictures are from yesterday and show the aftermath of a saudi—led airstrike in hodeidah. it killed 12 civilians, including 7 children. this war is in its fourth year. and it's caught in a power struggle between sunni and shia muslims. saudi arabia is sunni, iran is shia. yemen's embattled government is sunni, the houthi rebels are shia. saudi arabia doesn't want a shia government next door, which is one of the reasons it's intervened. this is the analysis of the bbc‘s security correspondent frank gardner. i think the saudis have realised for quite some time that they cannot bomb the houthis back to the negotiating table, which is i think what they thought back in march 20 15. the war began in 2014 when the houthis marched down and took over the capital and they are allied themselves with the ousted former president who put his own republican guard at their disp

for the iranians, ithink of yemen, stay out of syria. for the iranians, i think that will be a very public editing to ask because they will see that trump is doing they will see that trump is doing the deal with the saudis. the saudis are the deal with the saudis. the saudis a re really the deal with the saudis. the saudis are really keen to restrict uranium influence and it could fall into a regional dispute seeing america on one side rather than being supportive of the whole region. you talk about president trump doing the deal, but he is much aligned to israel as well, isn't he? that is stronger than it was with president obama. he is a very different president in the view of iran. good point. we know that he has a similarly close relationship with benjamin netanyahu and this is definitely a deal he would want to see be brought back to the table. yes, ina see be brought back to the table. yes, in a way that emanuel micron seemed to get concessions, it was a dangerous thing for him to go to washington. he could have come back with noth

not to be starry eyed about iran, which is currently involved in yemen, syria and in lebanon, causing trouble and mischiefmaking, and we should always hold their feet to the fire and not trust them until we have seen proof that they are to be trusted? the way to get irani and cooperation in other us areas of the middle east is not to start by tearing up an agreement they have signed in good faith themselves. and when president trump says that iran is not in compliance with the agreement, that is incorrect, as the international atomic energy agency have repeatedly certified. one mp suggested the uk should have adopted a different approach to president trump. the country has scored an own goal by refusing to deal with president trump in the way that president macron has. difficult though it may be, it would have been better had we extended more of a hand of friendship and a welcome to president trump, given the need to influence him regardless of personal feelings. but he said the uk continually engaged with the us and would continue to do so. the academic of the facebook data harvestin

saudi arabia, yemen and iraq. we have the ability to exercise influence going to syria if necessary. i think the president's gut instinct in terms of not having a huge military presence in syria is the right one. would you keep the 2000 they are? in all depends on ground conditions. it depends on isis, al-qaeda and what the mission is. if the mission has been completed or not. thank you. always a pleasure. thank you. really interesting to what he is saying. the kurds are part of the syrian democratic forces and have been fighting isis on the front line. a lot of them have now gone places to protect their families. the bigger question i suppose is do you want to introduce more arab nations into an already complex battlefield situation? there are already enough out state states involved in perhaps a bit further, located. that is one part of the moving story. the other thing we are watching over here is what is happening with sanctions. 0ver watching over here is what is happening with sanctions. over the weekend, ni

they talked a lot about protecting the sovereignty of syria and also of yemen. emanuel macron had been trying to persuade the president to keep those 2000 us troops in syria, because he knows if you are trying to renegotiate with iran and trying to renegotiate with iran and trying to get a deal at the same time on syria, you need some leverage. absolutely. and frankly, for the us to get out of syria now willjust result in isis coming back, as al-qaeda did in iraq when we pulled out, but also reduces liver edge on that third basket, the original set of concerns about iran. so we need to ensure that iran cannot expand its regional hegemony in syria and we are working together on a syria and state that will make the place sta ble and state that will make the place stable and much more democratic and free of foreign interference. another interesting line from the press c0 nfe re nce , another interesting line from the press conference, he has been talking a little more warmly about kimjong un, talking a little more warmly about kim jong un, saying talking a little m
