Day 31 of the Iran War: Gulf in Blood, Houthis Open New Front
Analysis Malik Sarfaraz Hussain Awan, March 30, 2026: Friends, analysts and international media viewers, today the situation in the Middle East has reached a very dangerous point and it is no longer just a war between Iran and Israel, but the entire Gulf, the Red Sea and the global energy supply lines have become entangled together, where the 31st day of "Operation Roaring Line" has witnessed intense operations on multiple fronts, and Iran directly targeted the Gulf countries with missiles and drones on a military camp in Kuwait, in which 10 Kuwaiti soldiers were injured, while the Emirates Global Aluminum Plant in the United Arab Emirates and the Al-Baha Factory in Bahrain were also attacked, which the Arab League has strongly condemned and Iran has given a clear message that whoever supports the United States and Israel will also be targeted. Meanwhile, the Houthis in Yemen have fired ballistic missiles and drones at southern Israel, blaring sirens as far as Haifa Port, and have announced that their operations will continue until the attacks on Iran and the axis of resistance stop. Which is a new serious threat to the Red Sea and the Bab al-Mandab, while on the other hand, the IDF has carried out more than 140 attacks on Iranian missile and drone production sites, including Tehran, and US forces have targeted Iranian command centers, as well as deployed 3,500 additional Marines to the region through the Pentagon, and planning is underway for a possible operation on Iran's main oil export hub, Kharkiv Island. Regarding important statements and contradictions, President Trump made the explosive claim on Air Force One that regime change has occurred in Iran, the leaders have disappeared, and the military has been weakened, and warned that if a deal is not made, Iran's energy facilities and oil wells will be completely destroyed. While the Iranian Foreign Ministry has described this US offer as unrealistic and excessive, it has vowed to respond with full force against a ground attack. And although Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, and Bahrain have condemned Iran's attacks, they are privately worried about the economic losses of the war because this war is now limited to limited attacks. It has escalated into a full-scale regional conflict and the entry of the Houthis is seriously threatening Red Sea shipping, and the biggest game changer is the arrival of thousands of US Marines and the possible occupation of Kharkiv Island, which will severely affect global oil supplies and lead to an energy crisis in Europe and Asia. So the biggest question now is whether there will be a ceasefire by the April 6 deadline or a ground operation on Kharkiv Island will start and set the entire region on fire. And my final thought is that the continuation of this war is now changing the geopolitical map of the region. If there is no ceasefire by the April 6 deadline, a possible US operation on Kharkiv Island will not only paralyze Iran’s economy but could also cause a 20-25% reduction in global oil supplies. China, which is Iran’s largest oil buyer, cannot tolerate this situation and is increasing diplomatic pressure through the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, together with Russia. Pakistan, a long-standing ally of the Gulf states on one hand and a direct neighbor of Iran on the other, is now in a most delicate position. Islamabad’s policy of neutrality is commendable, but if the war spreads further, Pakistan’s oil imports, remittances, CPEC projects and border security will all be at risk. Should Pakistan now play an active diplomatic role? Can regional countries make Pakistan a platform for mediation? These questions are a major test not only for Pakistani foreign policy but also for the entire Islamic world. If today’s silence becomes tomorrow’s big price, history will not forgive us.

The world on the brink of crisis: American leadership, three war fronts and the dark shadow of global catastrophe
Special Report by Malik Sarfaraz Hussain Awan: The world's only superpower, the United States, re-elected Donald Trump as president in the 2024 elections, and Trump's second term, starting in January 2025, is causing severe conflicts and economic pressure on the global level under the "America First" policy. At the end of February 2026, joint air operations by the United States and Israel began direct attacks on Iran, which has plunged the Middle East into the flames of full-scale war, and despite the passage of a month, this war continues, resulting in the death of thousands of innocent people and the global economy suffering the most severe setbacks, while President Trump's unilateral cancellation of the Iran nuclear deal in his first term, the closure of the US embassy, The transfer of Jerusalem and the policy of complete and blind support by Israel have actually formed the basis of today's horrific crisis that has fueled instability in the Middle East, and Trump's trade war with China, distrust of NATO allies, and the selfish strategy of "America First" have badly affected the balance of global power, resulting in new and escalating conflicts. The world is currently fighting on three major fronts simultaneously. On the first front, Russia's invasion of Ukraine since 2022 is still in its fourth year. In March 2026, Russian forces launched a regular spring and summer offensive, in which, according to Ukrainian Commander-in-Chief General Oleksandr Syrsky, an average of hundreds of attacks were carried out in 24 hours between March 17 and 20 alone, and thousands of soldiers were killed and injured. Although Ukraine has also taken some counterattacks and drone strikes on Russian oil facilities have But the continuous supply of weapons by the US and Western allies is prolonging this war and completely paralyzing the European economy and supply chain. On the other major front, on February 28, 2026, the US and Israel launched large-scale air strikes on Iran under 'Operation Epic Fury' and 'Roaring Line', targeting Iran's nuclear and missile infrastructure, killing several high-ranking officials. In response, Iran fired retaliatory missiles at Israel and US bases, including Gulf countries, which has now spread to Lebanon and seriously jeopardized the security of peaceful and economically stable Gulf states like Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates. Similarly, as a third major maritime crisis, the Iranian-backed Houthi rebels have threatened to attack ships in the Red Sea, and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz has affected a large part of global trade, forcing shipping companies to take longer routes. This crisis has destroyed the global supply chain and caused Brent crude oil prices to plummet. Crude oil prices have risen from $105 to $118 per barrel in March 2026, which is causing a devastating storm of inflation in poor and developing countries. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has also warned that if these wars continue, global economic growth will be severely affected and developing countries, including Pakistan, will suffer from severe starvation and poverty. Therefore, according to impartial analysts, the current US leadership does not seem to have a clear strategy to get out of these crises and the decisions seem to be based on temporary reactions and panic. If the major powers do not immediately set the table for negotiations, the threat of a third world war could be very real. And since history is witness that when leaderships fail, public protests always become a source of major change, it is time for the American people to stop waiting for the next elections in 2028 for the sake of their country's declining global reputation and the survival of humanity, and to act today. Let's take to the streets and start a peaceful but vigorous protest movement because if they continue to remain silent spectators, future generations will never forgive their silence. Finally, the international community, especially Pakistan, and all developing countries should learn a hard lesson from this crisis that the weak always bear the brunt of the selfishness of global powers. Therefore, there is an urgent and urgent need to restore peace, make vigorous diplomatic efforts, and make balanced policies to save the world so that humanity can be prevented from falling into the pit of this horrific disaster.
