Is Yemen on the brink of a new war? The world has been focused on the Red Sea attacks and U.S. airstrikes, but beneath the headlines, a massive ground offensive is quietly taking shape — one that could redefine the Yemeni civil war. The internationally recognised Yemeni government is reportedly assembling 80,000 troops in a bid to retake Hodeidah Port from the Iran-backed Houthis.

But this isn’t just a local military move — there are signs that the U.S., along with private American security contractors and the UAE, might be helping plan the operation. What would this mean for the Houthis, for Iran’s influence in the region, and for millions of Yemenis already facing one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises? Could this be the final push in Yemen’s long-running conflict — or the start of something much worse?

In this episode, Ananya Dutta breaks down the strategy, the stakes, and the global shadow war behind the 'next war' in Yemen."Watch the full episode on YouTube-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TyZRRZVT-E

It’s been five years since the COVID-19 pandemic changed everything—from the way we work to the way we think about global health. But what if another pandemic strikes tomorrow? Will the world be any more prepared?

The World Health Organisation thinks it can be, thanks to a new agreement being finalised right now: the Pandemic Treaty. In this episode of Grey Zone, Ananya Dutta dives into the heart of the WHO's most ambitious post-COVID effort.

What is this treaty? How will it change the way we respond to global health threats? Why are developing nations fighting for vaccine equity and tech transfer—and why is the U.S., the world's richest and most powerful country, sitting this one out?

With new outbreaks like Lassa Fever, Marburg virus, and others already popping up in 2025, this story isn’t just about preparedness. It’s about power, politics, and the price of inaction.

Ecuador just made "history" — but not without chaos. Daniel Noboa, the 37-year-old president, has been re-elected in a messy, high-stakes election that’s causing shockwaves across Latin America.

In this episode of Grey Zone, Ananya Dutta breaks down: How did Noboa manage two election wins in two years?

Why is he betting big on his ties with Donald Trump?

And is Latin America quietly adopting a new “Trump Model” for political survival?

We dig into Ecuador’s spiraling drug war, Noboa’s controversial call for U.S. military help, and why Latin American leaders are hedging their bets on personal relationships over traditional alliances.As Noboa tightens security, rewrites foreign policy, and cozies up to Trump, the big question is: Can personal diplomacy survive America’s "no friends, no foes" era?Watch Ananya Dutta's report for Grey Zone to understand how this could reshape Latin America's future — and what it tells us about global politics today.
