Rubio: We have a defence agreement with Saudi Arabia and I spoke with its foreign minister about the attacks on it

Saudi Arabia ·

Rubio said he spoke with his Saudi counterpart about attacks on the kingdom and that Washington has a defence agreement with Saudi Arabia. He added that the United States is following developments in the region as the attacks have increased.

Saudi Arabia has been involved in Yemen's conflict since 2015, facing cross-border attacks from the Houthi movement (Ansar Allah), which controls Sanaa and much of northern Yemen. Washington and Riyadh have long-standing security ties.
