A Billion Dollars To Stop Houthi Attacks? Saudi, Pak, Turkey Turn To Tehran Amid Houthi Bloodbath

Saudi Arabia has American missiles, a military and a defence pact with Pakistan and Turkey. Yet it is reportedly offering $1 billion to the Houthis, through Iran, to stop the attacks. The optics are humiliating for a monarchy with $83 billion in weaponry. According to Israel Hayom, Defence Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman flew to Tehran negotiating a ceasefire, though a Saudi official did not confirm any cash changed hands. The Houthis have targeted Saudi airports, oil facilities and trade routes since September, and an October 10 strike on King Khalid International Airport killed 12 civilians. Riyadh reportedly telephoned Trump twice, but received no help. Allies from the Mecca Pact never materialised. Irans security chief Mohsen Rezaei says regional security must come from regional countries, not foreign powers. Is this Tehrans biggest propaganda victory yet? Watch the complete breakdown to see how failed military responses are pushing Washingtons allies toward Irans door.

Apple Shares tvOS 27.2 Release Notes With List of New Features

tvOS 27.2 was released on Monday for the Apple TV 4K (2nd generation) and newer, but the Apple TV does not show release notes for software updates in the Settings app. Instead, Apple periodically updates a support document outlining what is new in tvOS updates, and the release notes for tvOS 27.2 are now available. Note that Apple never released a tvOS 27.1 version, so tvOS 27.2 is the first Apple TV software update since tvOS 27 was released in September. Apple says tvOS 27.2 includes a few FaceTime enhancements, plus the ability to shuffle through different screen saver categories. In addition, the Find My app now supports the Siri Remote (2nd generation) and later , but Precision Finding is limited to the Siri Remote (4th generation). The update also contains bug fixes and security patches . Here are Apple's full tvOS 27.2 release notes: This update brings new ways to stay connected with FaceTime, personalize your screen saver, and locate your Siri Remote with Find My, along with bug fixes and security updates for your Apple TV 4K. FaceTime FaceTime links make it easier to join calls directly from your Apple TV. Sign language interpreter and captioning support lets you add third-party services to your calls. Screen Savers Photo personalization lets you use your iPhone to choose specific photos for your screen saver without sharing your full library with Apple TV. Shuffle option lets you enjoy different screen saver categories as your Apple TV cycles through them. Find My Find My support lets you locate your Siri Remote (2nd generation) or later using your iPhone. Apple said Siri AI will be available on the Apple TV 4K (2nd generation) and newer , but this functionality is not yet enabled on these models on tvOS 27.2. The new Apple TV 4K (4th generation) launches on Friday, November 13, and Siri AI is one of its headline new features, so perhaps the feature will come to older models closer to then.
