Secret meeting of Netanyahu, Saudi crown prince

Top leaders from Israel and Saudi Arabia reportedly held their first-ever meeting in secret over the weekend. Israeli media first reported the meeting but Saudi Arabia denied it happened. All of this comes as the Trump administration urges more countries across the region to form ties with Israel to help ramp up pressure against Iran. CBS News State Department and foreign affairs reporter Christina Ruffini joins CBSN to explain the latest developments.

U.N.: Humanitarian crisis in Ethiopia

The U.N. said more than 27,000 people have fled Ethiopia into neighboring Sudan as fighting continues in Ethiopia's Tigray region. Also, Iran's government issued a stark warning to the U.S. over reports that President Trump asked advisers for options on striking Iran's main nuclear site, and a delegation from Bahrain touched down in Israel on the first direct commercial flight between the two countries. CBS News foreign correspondent Ian Lee joined "CBSN AM" from London with those headlines and more.
