Russia-Iran alliance has been an ongoing issue and is not as strong as it has been previously made out to be. Economic and militant relations are limited and at times are more competitive with one another than they should be. Serve as threats to each other and there is a lot of tension between the two.

The instability in Yemen could provide Al Qaeda with an opportunity to expand "its domestic insurgency." The article then gives background to Al Qaeda attacks on Yemen. The Houthis, dominating northwestern Yemen and the capital, have clashed with the terrorist group, which is mainly present in southern and central provinces.
