00:00 Iran is a new player that might officially enter the red sea area.
00:07 Iran declares it and enters through a destroyer into the red sea area, the conflict area between
00:14 the Houthis, commercial ships, oil transporters, as well as the United States and a number of
00:20 countries.
00:21 We look at what is happening in the red sea area, where Iran has become an official
00:27 player in this conflict, perhaps in the near future.
00:31 After the destroyer Alpers entered the red sea area and crossed the Mandab Gate, and
00:38 entered the red sea area, it accompanied another warship.
00:42 It did so after the United States attacked or stopped the United States through its fleet
00:50 and its aircraft carriers, attacking the Houthis on commercial ships, specifically a ship
00:58 belonging to the company Mersk.
01:00 There was an American bombing of Houthi boats in the Red Sea.
01:04 Ten Houthis were killed, and three boats were sunk in the Red Sea as a result of this
01:10 attack.
01:11 The attack on the ship Mersk Hangchou was a missile attack on this ship and attempts
01:18 to sail on this ship and kidnap it, but the United States stopped this attack after
01:26 the company Mersk took advantage of it.
01:30 This take advantage and this attack was pushed by the company Mersk after it had returned
01:36 its ships to pass through the Red Sea to stop this matter again.
01:43 The attacks on the Houthis began in November last year, but the United States, when it
01:50 saw this attack on the Houthis and the disruption of trade in the Red Sea area and thus in the
01:57 Suez Canal, talked about the Hares development, which included the cooperation of several
02:03 countries to secure the salt in the Red Sea, and the passage of ships and trade.
02:09 The companies returned to pass through the Red Sea again, as we were talking about Mersk
02:16 and CMACGM, but this matter, after this attack, was suspended again.
02:22 This move and the passage of the Houthi attacks, according to the Pentagon, in the Red Sea
02:28 area, in one month, kidnapped a ship of aircraft, launched more than 100 attacks with
02:34 drones and targeted 10 commercial ships.
02:39 This has caused fear among many people in the Middle East.
02:44 But with Iran's intrusion and its destruction of the Red Sea area, this increases fear and
02:50 tension, especially since Iran, as long as it has entered into a direct conflict with
02:56 the United States, is always threatened by the closure of the Hormuz Strait.
03:01 The Middle East, in general, is where 60% of the world's oil is transported by sea,
03:06 passes through the Middle East.
03:08 12% of global trade passes through this region, through the Hormuz Strait, the Mandeb
03:14 Gate Strait, the Suez Canal, and also the Somad pipeline.
03:18 These important passages to the Middle East for oil, and therefore, we have seen,
03:23 in contrast to the prices of oil in the second session of January and the first sessions
03:28 of February, the prices of oil have increased by about 2% at the beginning of this year,
03:33 with the increase in tensions.
03:35 So, a new departure and a new entry for Iran into the Middle East, or specifically,
03:40 for the conflict in the Red Sea area, through its destroyer Alpers.
