WorldUK to send jets to help defend Saudi Arabia from Houthi attacks

The UK says it will deploy RAF fighter jets to defend Saudi Arabia from Houthi attacks, as the Iran-backed group targets the kingdom’s airports and energy infrastructure. The programme also reports an unannounced visit to Israel by US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth to discuss the Iran war with Benjamin Netanyahu, and a senior Pakistani mediator’s arrival in Tehran to try to bring the US and Iran closer to an agreement.
