View From India | The arc of conflict is widening in West Asia

The Hindu  

With a drone attack by Iran-backed militias on a U.S. logistics hub in Jordan, near the border with Syria, in which three American service persons were killed, the crisis in West Asia is set to escalate further. This incident shows how the Israel-Hamas war has snowballed into a deadly regional security crisis, involving the U.S., Iran and Israel. The U.S. responded by carrying out air strikes against the Houthis and the Shia militias of Iraq and Syria, but such attacks only triggered a cycle of violence rather than bolstering America’s deterrence. If it attacks Iran, it would trigger an all-out war in the region, something which the White House says it doesn’t want.
