As the new round of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict continues to escalate, the situation in the Middle East is also becoming increasingly tense, and now the situation is not only spilling over from the Gaza Strip to the rest of the Middle East, but may even spread to the coast of India.
A number of countries and military entities in the Middle East that have not stopped are also ready to move, further exacerbating tensions in the region.
In addition, the United States is rallying allies to confront the Houthis in the Red Sea, which is escalating and risks triggering a new war.
It can be said that the Middle East is now in chaos, and if the situation is allowed to develop according to the current track, it is increasingly likely to trigger a new round of war in the Middle East.
Pentagon)Iran attacks on cargo ships?
According to Agence France-Presse, the US Pentagon issued a statement saying that "a one-way attack drone launched from Iran" attacked a chemical cargo ship off the coast of India.
The statement said the U.S. military was still communicating with the attacked vessel, which was continuing to a destination in India.
To say that this matter has nothing directly related to the situation in the Middle East, the ship is not Israeli, and the one who launched the attack cannot prove that it was a drone from Iran.
But AFP said the attack came as the Houthis launched drone and missile strikes on key Red Sea routes, noting that the Houthis were backed by Iran.
The matter has not yet been further developed, but the Indian Navy sent a plane over the vessel after receiving a request for assistance.
In addition, India sent a **.
If the matter is indeed related to the situation in the Middle East, it means that tensions in the Middle East have spread to the shores of India.

Turkish air strikes on two neighboring countries
Another report in Reference News said that the Turkish Ministry of Defense announced that the Turkish Air Force carried out air strikes in northern Iraq and Syria, destroying 29 PKK targets.
The operation was launched because 12 Turkish soldiers were killed in northern Iraq within 48 hours.
The successive Turkish soldiers showed that the Kurdish forces took advantage of the chaotic situation in the Middle East to take action, and Turkey retaliated by directly attacking two neighboring countries to further escalate the situation.
Turkish airstrikes in Iraq and Syria in the name of fighting Kurdish forces have become commonplace, but now that the situation in the Middle East is already extremely serious, Turkey's continued air strikes on its neighbors are likely to lead to a rapid escalation of the situation.
After all, the United States, the world's biggest destabilizing factor, is constantly expanding its presence in the Middle East, and as an ally of the United States, if the Kurdish forces take some radical action while the United States is concentrating its efforts on the Middle East, the consequences will be unimaginable.
The situation in the Red Sea is becoming more and more tense).
Tensions persist between the United States and the Houthis
The most worrying confrontation at the moment is still in the Red Sea.
The United States has begun to rally allies to deal with the Houthis, and many allies are afraid to avoid them.
Some countries joined but did not disclose their identities, some countries only sent very limited forces to cooperate with the United States, and some countries sent **, but made it clear that it was a separate operation, not to cooperate with the United States' joint action.
These signs indicate a problem - the United States may have moved "murderous intentions".
Throughout the wars in which the United States has participated, it has always been carried out with its allies and never acted alone.
The United States began to "shake people" at this time, and the allies would naturally be worried about the war between the United States and the Houthis, so they drew a line one after another, and if the matter was really going to make a big fuss, they could also leave quickly, otherwise they would likely be tied to the warship by the United States.
