Saudi Prince's Big Military Revamp Means Billions to Business - Bloomberg:
"An army band with bagpipes marched past displays of machine guns and laser-guided missiles in Riyadh this week as international defense companies showed off their hardware. Hours later, the Saudi government announced that several top commanders had been removed, including the chief of staff and the heads of ground and air forces. If recent months have all been about Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s crackdown on business elites, now he’s turned to the military as he extends his authority over the kingdom. The purge of top brass comes as Saudi Arabia is struggling to get a grip on the proxy war with Iran in neighboring Yemen."
