Saudi Arabia has said the Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen will face “consequences” after a series of deadly attacks on Riyadh’s airport and other sites across the country.
Meanwhile, Houthi media reported an oil facility in the Yemeni capital Sanaa has been hit by Saudi-coalition forces.
And the head of MI5 said Iran is expanding a hybrid campaign in the UK, targeting Jewish communities and military bases.
Elsewhere, the International Monetary Fund said the global economy has dealt with the impacts of war in Iran better than expected, but warns that countries are running out of flexibility to tackle rising prices.

A diplomat’s job is traditionally to represent their country’s interests while maintaining good relations with their host nation. But some of Donald Trump’s ambassadors are taking a different approach.
On Tuesday, Kimberly Guilfoyle resigned from her ambassadorship in Greece after serious allegations were raised about her conduct. According to reporting by the Wall Street Journal, the former fiancée of Donald Trump Jr. allegedly asked a Trump donor to pay off her $100,000 Amex bill — allegations she denies.
Guilfoyle is not the only ambassador to have caused a stir. US envoys around the world have sparked diplomatic rows, controversy and, in some cases, appeared to step beyond the traditional boundaries of their role.
What do Donald Trump’s ambassador picks, and their conduct, tell us about the new way that America does diplomacy?
Reuters’ senior White House correspondent, Humeyra Pamuk, breaks down how Trump’s ambassadors are breaking with tradition.

Katie Zacharia is “transitioning out” of her role as White House press secretary, the White House has confirmed to the BBC.
They did not provide a timeline for when she would be leaving the position.
US President Donald Trump earlier said he told Zacharia to “reconsider” her role.
He said he told her, “You don’t have to do this”, after her debut in the briefing room earlier this week.
Zacharia has been treated “very, very badly” by the media in recent days, Trump told reporters outside the White House.

Let me tell you as a Sudanese citizen who has been threatened, attacked and kicked out of my house in Khartoum. This is 5 month old video at the moment, I only now found the internet connection to view it. The Sudanese army is complicit in crimes in Darfor: but the one in charge then was the Basheer government, not al burhan. Hemediti was a literal bandit turned mercenary hired to do the army's job because the soldiers used to refuse the command's genocidal orders. He was Al-basheer hound dog; Al-basheer summoned him to the capital to protect him from the army during the 2019 demonstrations. He then betrayed al-basheer and ousted him with the army.
The Central for Freedom and Change, now the civilian in charge, no one knows why they decided to join forces with them and anointed al Burhan the highest military leader – Burhan wasn't the highest ranking general then.
In April, the Central for Freedom and Change + Hemedti RSF decided on a coup to oust Burhan – their plan was a day or so operation, with them announcing their government together. the RSF was gathering forces in Khartoum for months beforehand – Every day we saw new equipment brought in. Except they failed to get Burhan and the coup itself failed.
So far this conflict was political… it devolved however by the RSF; they started taking shelter inside citizens' homes , kicking/ forcing/ killing them out to leave; when things got desperate for them, they called on other militias in Africa (now the bulk of them) and set them loose in Khartoum; they continued to evict citizens, random killings and more. They began looting everything, from banks to stores, homes whatever and escaping with them. Sexual violence became common practice for them; rape cases became common, they abduct and rape women and children, sometimes demanding a ransom, other times they take'em to sell as slaves in central africa.
Now, they don't even fight the army, which stays in their bases. every day they terrorise the citizens- and they still dare call their fight a one for democracy. The Central for Freedom and Change still support them in them – they're all backed by the UAE and their PR team is strong internationally. They paint a picture of the army being at fault and them fighting for the citizens. All Sudanese now hate the RSF and the Central for F&C with a passion and no one would accept a resolution that allows them in power in again. Everyone now supports the army in this battle – me included. The war has shown us who truly has the country's best interest at heart. The UAE is the main backer of the RSF; providing weapons and capital and their public image. Many betrayed and sold Sudan to UAE interests but the majority still stands. we know who our enemy is, we won't yield. This battle will end with the Army and the Sudanese people's victory, We'll go back home no matter how long it takes. We'll hold everyone responsible accountable to their crimes and we'll build Sudan great again. I was never patriotic, but this war has taught me to value my country- I'm amazed and appaled how could anyone sell out their country.

Unfortunately, this war is not getting the same attention as Ukraine. Western countries care more about white people than people with darker skin.

There are no SIDES to this war, it is the national army(army of the Sudanese people) and a Militia called RSF with mercenary from Mali, Niger, Central Africa Chad.
Sudanese Army has proven to be impenetrable & invincible barrier in the face of those thirsty for Sudanese resources and blood.
The Sudanese have never been so aligned behind their army since the British colonisation.
Peace!

Sudan still doing well after independence, then? Let me just say what should be blindingly obvious to anybody – Sudan was better off under the British, who provided roads, drainage, medical care, clean water, regular food and vaccinations for children. The present Sudanese "leaders" provide only war, weapons and expensive consumer goods for themselves and their families.

What about more contraceptives and less weapons and people's money invested in a good way in Sudan instead of keeping it by corrupt politicians and businesspeople in foreign banks?
