What is reported to be a foiled murder plot is putting further strain on the relationship between Saudi Arabia and the United States.
Former Saudi intelligence agent Saad al-Jabri is suing the Saudi Crown Prince in the US, alleging Mohammed Bin Salman (MBS) sent the "hit squad" that murdered journalist Jamal Khashoggi to kill him in Canada.
In a rare rebuke, the US State Department praised al-Jabri and demanded answers about the safety of his children, who went missing in March.
Will US President Donald Trump, a staunch MBS supporter, be forced to take action?
