An Israeli security official said active cooperation with Saudi Arabia has reopened a path toward expanding the Abraham Accords. The official said Israel and Riyadh share interests and that Saudi leaders are reassessing regional alignments after recent escalation. Another regional source said Israel is providing intelligence on Houthi activity to Saudi Arabia through U.S. Central Command to help it counter the group. Earlier reporting said Israeli intelligence had helped Riyadh assess Houthi force locations and intentions. The normalization assessment and intelligence-sharing account were attributed to unnamed officials; no official Israeli, Saudi or CENTCOM release confirmed them.
