Yemen Seizes Boat Filled With Arms Possibly From Iran

The boat was filled with explosives, weapons and money, and American officials said there were indications that Iran was smuggling the contraband to insurgents inside Yemen
Since most of the insurgents in Yemen are tied to al Qaeda the find suggest Iran is trying to build another ally in the region.  It si an interesting issue since Iran is at war with one branch of al Qaeda in Syria, but she has been known to be harboring al Qaeda refugees from elsewhere in the region.
