Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi has requested parliamentary approval for Egypt to defend Saudi Arabia if needed amid increased Houthi attacks, signalling closer military cooperation between the two countries as Yemen's conflict escalates.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Egypt's authorised military backing for Saudi Arabia changes the balance of regional security support. If you operate in Middle East security or defence, anticipate increased demand for related services or risk from escalating conflict.
