According to the Saudi state news agency, the two foreign ministers are expected to discuss bilateral relations as well as key regional and international developments.
Prince Faisal’s visit comes amid heightened tensions involving the Houthis and an increase in reported attacks targeting Saudi Arabia.
According to Reuters sources cited in the report, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman had requested US military assistance for possible action against the Houthis.
The United States reportedly declined to carry out direct attacks but agreed to provide intelligence and assistance related to targeting.
The talks between the Saudi and US foreign ministers are expected to cover the wider regional security situation along with bilateral relations and other international developments.
