The Yemeni Houthis have intensified their missile and drone attacks against Saudi Arabia in recent weeks. These developments occur in a situation where the forces supported by Riyadh in Yemen are trying to push back the military advances of the Houthis.
The Wall Street Journal has reported that Saudi Arabia is struggling to protect its vast territories and there are concerns about the country's stockpile of interceptor missiles. For this reason, air defense systems are deployed in various locations to protect sensitive centers, including energy infrastructure and royal palaces.
Bin Salman's economic dream under the shadow of war
The intensification of insecurity can also endanger the crown prince's ambitious economic plans. In the past years, Bin Salman has tried to move the Saudi economy away from dependence on oil and turn the country into an important destination for tourism, technology and foreign investment by implementing the "Vision 2030" program.
But attacks on airports, oil facilities and energy export routes present a different picture of Saudi security; An image that may undermine the confidence of investors and international companies.
Holding a big investment conference in Riyadh has also been associated with security concerns under such conditions.
Riyadh between military response and crisis containment
Saudi Arabia is seeking foreign aid to bolster its air defenses, and reports suggest consultations with allies, including Pakistan. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump has raised the possibility of Washington participating in retaliatory attacks against the Houthis.
However, it is not yet clear how far Riyadh will go to expand military operations in Yemen. For Bin Salman, the issue is not only to counter the attacks of the Houthis; The security of the capital, the protection of the royal family and the preservation of Saudi economic credibility are also tied to the outcome of this crisis.
