Iranian-backed Houthi rebels have entered the monthlong war in the Middle East and claimed that they launched missiles toward Israel. The Houthis could threaten another important global shipping lane in the region. About 2,500 U.S. Marines have arrived in the Middle East to strengthen the largest U.S. military buildup in the region in more than two decades. Pakistan says Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Egypt will send their top diplomats to Islamabad for talks aimed at ending the war. But Iran's foreign minister expressed skepticism about diplomatic efforts and accused the U.S. of being “contradictory.”
