Piers Morgan Uncensored

The Houthis of Yemen are increasingly becoming a subject of major global concern. Having ramped up attacks on commercial shipping passing through the Bab al-Mandab Strait, they pose a direct threat to international maritime trade and the global economy. As a vital passage supplementing the Strait of Hormuz, disruptions here risk driving global prices for oil and essential commodities significantly higher, carrying severe financial and political consequences worldwide.

Yet, the highest price of this ongoing crisis is borne by the Yemeni people. Amid 11 years of devastating civil war, an estimated 400,000 people have died from combat or famine, with thousands more forced to flee their homes as refugees. What is officially a domestic conflict between the Houthis and the Yemeni government has escalated into a broad regional war involving Saudi Arabia, backed by the United States, the UK, and Israel. With Saudi Arabia calling on the US for a renewed military campaign following a Houthi attack on Mecca, the world eagerly awaits President Donald Trump’s next move.

In a rare and exclusive interview on Piers Morgan Uncensored, senior Houthi official Nasr al-Din Amer joins Piers Morgan to address these escalating tensions, the attacks in the Red Sea, and what comes next for Yemen and the region.

Piers is then joined by Tehran University’s Professor Mohammad Marandi, Middle East Forum chief strategist Jim Hanson and military analyst and political scientist Robert Pape.

The current biggest story in the UK media is Piers Morgan threatening legal action against Earl Spencer over false allegations he made about him in his new book about his sister, the late Princess Diana.

And, although Spencer has since issued a statement apologizing and admitting he hadn’t checked his facts properly, Piers has instructed his lawyers to still get in touch.

Earl Spencer will make a lot of money from this book, which is why Piers is demanding a payment to Charles’ charity The King’s Trust.

He’s already being judged in the court of public opinion - and depending on what he does next, a court of law may have to determine the rest.
