This is nothing new in the sense that the Houthis have been launching
missiles from the Yemen border striking Saudi military targets for a
couple of years now. What IS new about this is that the missile
reached Riyadh. It's not surprising that the Saudis would like to
cover it up, but that obviously isn't going to happen. What will
happen is that this will substantially increase tensions further
between Saudi Arabia and Iran, and in some scenarios might result in
retaliation against Iran.
It will be interesting to see how the BBC covers this tomorrow,
after everything's been confirmed.
