The sectarian volcano in both Syria and Yemen conflicts

الملخص EN

This study discusses sectarianism as a determinant factor contributing significantly to the escalation of violence in both the Syrian conflict and the Yemeni conflict through the regional polarization of states and actors who have a large presence in the Middle East.

Which are also driven by sectarian and historical ideological motives towards regional issues such as Iran and Saudi- Arabia (So is Israel).

That has negatively affected the region and the continuation of the Syrian conflict as part of a devastating proxy war.

Through the external lens and regional interventions driven by sectarian policies, we will try to answer the main question, which is; why sectarianism still fuels both the Yemeni conflict and the Syrian conflict? We start with the assumption that the sectarian card has become the most effective tool in the hands of regional powers in the Middle East to justify their interventions in the Middle East issues.
