Why Saudi Arabia's military struggles against Houthi attacks
Original: Why Saudi Arabia's military has struggled to defend the country against Houthi attacks
PBS reports on why Saudi Arabia's military has struggled to defend the country against attacks by Yemen's Houthi movement. Despite years of weapons purchases from the United States and other Western suppliers, and a costly intervention in Yemen's civil war, Saudi air defenses have repeatedly failed to stop missiles and drones reaching targets inside the kingdom, raising questions about the effectiveness of its forces.
Why now: Renewed Houthi attacks on Saudi territory have put fresh scrutiny on the shortcomings of the kingdom's heavily funded military.
