Yemen's Houthis are upending the Gulf order. The Saudis are the biggest losers

A ballistic missile strike hits a fuel depot close to Riyadh’s international airport. Air raid sirens wailed across the Saudi capital before dawn on Saturday, as they did across other regions, including Jeddah, Taif and Yanbu. The Houthi strikes exposed how vulnerable the Gulf kingdom is to the Yemeni group’s recent wave of attacks on the country, which they say are a response to Saudi strikes on Yemen. Will US President Donald Trump assist his friend Mohammed bin Salman? The crown prince - who the US president failed to help when oil terminals were hit by missiles from Iraq in 2019 - called the White House asking for US support in its war with Ansar Allah (Houthis). Once again, Trump said no.
