    Thanks to naive people who are manipulated with our beautiful religion , like you're not a muslim or nationalist if you don't vote for him, that is the treatment you get. 50 tl for 1 kg of onions, people are starved, but thanks to Arabs and syrians who bought citizenship and people in european countries who don't even live in the country he won. Even people in the uk , in uk they are socialist, but when it comes to Turkey they become far right, preety ironic.

Houthi attack on Saudi Arabia: What it means for the US | BBC News

Published

on



Is Washington leaving Saudi Arabia to fend for itself?

Last week, Houthi rebels launched a series of missile strikes on Riyadh, Saudi Arabia’s capital. Surveillance footage showed a fireball erupting as airport passengers ran for cover. At least fourteen people have been killed and hundreds were injured.

The attack is the latest escalation in a decade-long war between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis in neighbouring Yemen. The Saudis have long relied on financial, military and intelligence support from the United States, particularly in their fight against the Houthis. But Washington so far has shown little appetite for direct involvement in the fighting.

So why is the United States holding back? And what does that mean for the people caught in the middle?

The BBC’s chief international investigations correspondent, Nawal Al-Maghafi, recently reported from inside Yemen and joins The Global Story’s Asma Khalid to discuss why this conflict is escalating and what might happen next.
