In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin:

First up—Britain is deploying RAF fighter jets to defend Saudi Arabia against escalating Houthi missile and drone attacks. The move comes as a devastating Houthi strike kills at least 73 soldiers in Yemen, raising questions about how deeply Western powers could become involved in the growing conflict.
Later in the show—Nearly 60,000 American and Japanese troops launch major military exercises near Taiwan, deploying advanced anti-ship missiles and air-defense systems. The drills come as China expands its maritime patrols and sends nuclear-capable bombers toward the island, increasing tensions in the region.
