"The greatest threat to Jordan’s stability is now a regional war begun by its peace partner in Israel and Western patron in Washington — two allies meant to bolster its security and stability in the first place," writes @YomSean in @DAWN_Journal. dawnmena.org/jordan-is-enca…

Really good piece from @DAWNmenaorg Fellow @YomSean on #Jordan's geopolitical situation amid the Israel/US-Iran War, via @DAWN_Journal. Amman again finds itself in a precarious position of its own doing, forced to balance foreign alignments w/ an increasingly opposed populace.

"Herein lies Jordan’s dilemma: The Hashemite Kingdom finds itself ensnared by a regional inferno because of both its geography and foreign policy," argues DAWN Fellow @YomSean.  dawnmena.org/jordan-is-enca…

"Zeinab & her family are sleeping in the open in Beirut's Martyrs' Square. She doesn't know if she'll ever see her home again. 'This is no humanity' here, she said." Powerful report on Israel's unlawfully sweeping evacuation orders in Lebanon @DAWN_Journal dawnmena.org/there-is-no-hu…

#Lebanon is in throes of its second displacement crisis in two years. Entire families are sleeping in car parks and under motorway bridges, as Israel’s bombs and “evacuation” orders leave over 800,000 people homeless. My latest for @DAWN_Journal 👉 dawnmena.org/there-is-no-hu…

With its reassertion of control in the south, Saudi's war in Yemen enters "a new & uncertain phase"—writes Karim al-Yemani in @DAWN_Journal. Military & economic tools can't "substitute for political legitimacy or resolve the question of the south’s future" dawnmena.org/saudi-arabia-e…

"Whether the Kingdom can translate dominance into durable authority — rather than another cycle of unrest — will shape both southern Yemen’s trajectory and Saudi Arabia’s regional standing," writes Karim al-Yemani.  dawnmena.org/saudi-arabia-e…

Our Editor's Choice this week in @DAWN_Journal from @YahiaLababidi, who wrote an excellent op-ed on how many of us feel about this unnecessary and brutal war in #Iran and across the #MiddleEast.

"To claim liberation while schoolgirls are buried beneath concrete is a contradiction history will remember," writes @YahiaLababidi in @DAWN_Journal in a rebuke of the US/Israel-Iran War. dawnmena.org/when-war-retur…

Gaza has again fallen off the int'l community's radar amid the Iran war. In @DAWN_Journal, @GhadaRozzi describes daily life in Gaza, where "everyday survival becomes an ordeal." Don't let the 'ceasefire' deceive you. dawnmena.org/in-the-shadows…
