On Monday, the Egyptian House of Representatives will resume its third secret session to vote on President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi's request for approval to take the necessary steps to provide military support to Saudi Arabia, if Riyadh requests it. The council held two emergency meetings last week, and today's meeting is set to witness members of parliament voting on the request, amid reports of the possibility of announcing parliament's approval. This coincides with the kingdom's continued exposure to attacks by the Yemeni Houthi group loyal to Iran, targeting civilian airports and other targets.
