US and Saudi Arabia lack plan as Houthi strikes expose Riyadh's vulnerability

Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels have launched missiles and drones targeting the Saudi capital of Riyadh, resulting in a fire near the city's main airport on Saturday morning. This marks the first time the Houthis have struck the Saudi capital.

Simultaneously, fighting between the Houthi rebels and Saudi Arabia continues to intensify. On the ground in Yemen, the rebels are pushing eastward in their ongoing military campaign against the Saudi-backed government.
