After the Houthis attacked Saudi oil tankers in the Red Sea and seized the Bab al-Mandab Straits, Saudi Arabia contacted the Houthis to find out how much it would cost to "put down" the Houthis and demanded $51 billion. They also demand that they be recognized as Yemen's legitimate authority. The Houthis are now moving towards Aden, the port city home to the Saudi-allied government of Yemen. Aden is 80 km away. Recently, Saudi Arabia tried to purchase the Heaths with a billion dollars, immediately remembered the joke about the father and the caramel.
