Saudi Arabia 'braced for attacks from north and south' as Middle East tensions rise

Saudi Arabia is preparing for coordinated attacks from the north and south, potentially targeting civilian and economic infrastructure, as tensions in the Middle East escalate. Officials believe these attacks, possibly orchestrated by Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), could originate from Iraqi militias and Yemeni Houthis. The warnings come after Saudi Arabia and the U.S. conducted joint air strikes against Iranian-backed groups in Iraq. U.S. President Donald Trump suggested the conflict with Iran might soon conclude, while reports indicate the U.S. has largely depleted its long-range missiles. Recent attacks by Yemen's Houthi rebels have caused casualties in Saudi territory, prompting renewed military activity by Saudi forces in Yemen. Meanwhile, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan are set to sign a joint defense agreement.
