Saudi Arabia's $83 Billion Military Cannot Contain The Houthis

Original: Saudi Arabia’s $83 Billion Military Cannot Contain The Houthis

Saudi Arabia spends roughly $83 billion a year on its armed forces, yet continues to struggle against the Houthi movement in Yemen. Despite advanced Western-supplied equipment and one of the world's largest defence budgets, Riyadh has failed to stop Houthi missile and drone attacks, prompting renewed debate over the effectiveness of its military strategy and the region's security.

Why now: Ongoing Houthi attacks are drawing fresh attention to the gap between Saudi Arabia's defence spending and its battlefield results.
