Over 100 U.S. military advisers in Saudi Arabia supporting operations against Houthis

More than 100 U.S. military advisers are stationed in Saudi Arabia, providing intelligence and targeting support to Saudi forces in operations against the Houthis, CNN reports. The U.S. is supplying geospatial targeting and real-time battlefield tracking tools but is not participating in strikes or refueling missions. American officials now believe hundreds of Iranian Revolutionary Guards officers are operating inside Yemen, with assessments suggesting they are working with the Houthis toward potentially closing the Bab al-Mandab strait, described as Tehran's "doomsday weapon" if negotiations with the U.S. fail.
