Egypt Condemns Houthi Strikes on Riyadh, Backs Saudi Arabia

🕌 CAIRO — Arab solidarity sounds routine; from Egypt right now, it isn't. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: Cairo controls Suez, shares a border with Gaza, and hasn't publicly aligned on Houthi strikes before. Backing Riyadh now signals Egypt sees the Houthi threat as existential to Gulf stability — and its own energy revenues. With Washington still refusing direct Houthi strikes, Arab states are building their own political coalition. That changes the pressure calculus on Trump before he enters the White House war room.
