Houthi missile and drone attacks inflict casualties on Saudi Arabia despite its advanced military

Yemen's Houthi rebels launched missile and drone attacks targeting critical Saudi infrastructure, including King Khalid International Airport. The assault resulted in 13 fatalities and over 300 injuries. Despite substantial defense spending on an advanced arsenal, Saudi Arabia continues to struggle in countering these threats. Analysts point to coordination challenges and the asymmetric nature of the conflict, where low-cost Houthi weapons evade sophisticated defenses.
