Description: MeidasTouch host Ben Meiselas reports on major new developments in the U.S. war on Iran before his interview with University of Tehran Professor Mohammad Marandi. Meiselas examines Iran-aligned Houthi forces advancing along Yemen's Red Sea coast and reaching the strategic island of Perim at the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, as shipping through the Strait of Hormuz remains severely disrupted and Saudi Arabia seeks additional U.S. assistance against the Houthis. Meiselas also discusses Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian's arrival in New Delhi ahead of the BRICS summit and what these rapidly developing events could mean as Trump has destroyed the standing of the United States in the world.
