Below are some Friday geopolitical developments via Newsquawk....
Geopolitics: Middle East
Israeli military say they have "eliminated" Hassan Farhat, a Hamas commander in Lebanon
Israeli media reported that the Israeli army launched raids on large areas in the Gaza Strip, according to Al Jazeera
Houthi-affiliated media reports US aggression on the Kahlan area, east of Saada city, northern Yemen, according to Al Jazeera.
Iran reportedly abandons Houthis under relentless US bombardment and ordered its military personnel to leave Yemen, according to The Telegraph.
US President Trump said he spoke with Israeli PM Netanyahu on Thursday who may visit the US next week, although it was separately reported that Israeli PM Netanyahu's visit to the White House will likely take place in a few weeks.
Turkey said Israel's attacks on regional countries have made Israel the biggest threat to regional security, while it added that Israel is a regional destabiliser and is feeding chaos and terror.
Saudi Crown Prince received a phone call from Iran's President during which they discussed developments in the region and issues of common interest.
Geopolitics: Ukraine
US President Trump's inner circle advises against a call with Russian President Putin until he commits to a full ceasefire.
Russian envoy Dmitriev said lots of differences remain, but a diplomatic solution is possible and there is already some progress on trust-building measures, while he sees a positive dynamic in US-Russian relations and said Several meetings are needed to sort out differences. Dmitriev also stated that a long-term solution that takes into account Russian security concerns is what is needed, as well as commented that they are not asking for a lifting of sanctions and that they can do a deal with the US on rare earths.
Moscow's mayor said Russian air defences repelled drones approaching Moscow and >specialists are examining fallen fragments.
oof the iranians just abandoned the houthis while they are also taking to saudi arabia which has been a rival in the region because of sectarian and geopolitical ambitions of both parties to be a force in the middle east.
something is brewing. I believe the iranians also gave israel the keys to hezbollah and even syria (they were also backers of now deposed syrian dictator al assad)
this development is interesting to me. i think more developments from the region are forthcoming in a not so distant future. as the fateful 2030 date approaches things are promising to look very different for the region and perhaps the whole world. the WEF and Bilderberg and the club of rome shall not be denied
