The Rock N Roll Houthi Coup has now attacked Saudi Arabia, which is exactly why the Saudis were fighting a proxy war in Yemen – they were afraid there wasn’t enough of a buffer zone between them and Iran-allied militants.

From the Guardian:
Saudi Arabia on Saturday intercepted and destroyed a “ballistic missile” north-east of the capital Riyadh after it was launched from Yemen, state media reported.
“Saudi air defence intercepts ballistic missile northeast of Riyadh,” Saudi state TV said.
State-run news channel Al-Ekhbariya said the missile “was of limited size (and) no injuries or damage” was reported.
The missile was destroyed near Riyadh’s King Khaled international airport, which was functioning normally, it added.
Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi rebels claimed they had fired the missile, targeting the airport, the Houthi Al-Masirah television said.
This a bad sign that the conflict may grow and expand into other countries, especially after Trump made such a show of support for the Saudis.
These videos haven’t been confirmed, but they might show the missile launch from Yemen:
