Dutch driver Max Verstappen (Red Bull) clinched a commanding victory at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, the second race out of 24 in the Formula 1 season, on Saturday at the Jeddah street circuit.
The reigning triple world champion, who started from pole position, secured the 56th win of his career, his ninth consecutive one, and outpaced his teammate, Mexican Sergio Pérez, just like last weekend in Bahrain.
Turkey is assessing how it can help Saudi Arabia defend against attacks by Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthi militants under a joint defence pact with Pakistan, Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said on Thursday, ruling out Turkish participation in offensive operations.
Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthis escalated their campaign of strikes against Saudi Arabia on Thursday, trying to shut down the kingdom's airspace and oil facilities with missile fire that has killed three people this week.
Syria may deploy troops to help Saudi Arabia fight Yemen's Houthis, a US official and a Syrian defence official said, as the Iran-aligned group steps up its missile and drone attacks on the kingdom, killing three people at Saudi airports this week.
