Middle East War: Saudi Arabia intercepts Houthi missiles, drones as Iran talks continue

Saudi Arabia and its coalition have intercepted four Houthi drones and three ballistic missiles launched by Yemen's Houthi militia, targeting the southern and eastern regions of Saudi Arabia, respectively. Meanwhile, Oman's Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi has urged a Gulf security framework that includes Iran and a non-aggression pact among the region's eight states, emphasizing the importance of regional security being endogenous rather than reliant on external powers.

Iran, however, has set seven conditions for new talks with the US, insisting that security must come from the region and not from foreign actors.
