Israeli lies about a ‘land bridge’ to the Gulf show the Yemeni blockade is working
Israel says it is circumventing Yemen’s Red Sea blockade with a “land bridge” connecting it to Saudi Arabia and the UAE via Jordan. This is simply a charade to hide that Yemen’s blockade is working.
-
Israel's supply lines have been impacted due to various blockades and strikes during its genocidal war on Gaza.
-
A not-so-successful Israeli company, Trucknet, claimed to establish a "land bridge" connecting the Gulf to Israel through Jordan.
-
Trucknet's claims of a partnership with a UAE-based company called Puretrans have been questioned due to lack of evidence and suspicious stock price fluctuations.
-
Israel's Transportation Minister, Miri Regev, has made statements supporting the existence of the land bridge, but no concrete evidence has been provided.
-
The concept of the land bridge is part of the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridors (IMEC) announced in September 2022, aiming to foster connectivity and economic integration.
-
Despite the claims, there is little evidence of a significant or functional "land bridge" between Israel, Jordan, and the Gulf.
Very biased article, but an interesting perspective nonetheless.

They could write perfectly balanced articles on everything else, this specific article demonstrates a significant bias. Hell, it ends with an instruction for what Palestinian people should do, basically a call to action for Palestinians in Jordan. A professional, unbiased journalist does not do that.
