The UK received requests from Saudi Arabia for a range of diplomatic and military support. The Saudi requests include operational support for its military to repel the Iranian-backed group's push along Yemen's Red Sea coast toward the Bab al-Mandeb Strait, as well as assistance in defending against attacks on its oil infrastructure, according to Bloomberg.
The Saudi King will meet Egyptian President Al-Sisi tomorrow. The Yemenis have taken possession of the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait, cutting off Saudia.
We may be their last resource, but they have rejected the Abraham Accords. Saudia is not very far, just in front of Sharm el-Sheikh on the Red Sea.
