Saudi Arabia plans major Houthi retaliation
Saudi Arabia is preparing for a large-scale military operation against the Houthi movement in Yemen, aimed at securing navigation in the Red Sea and regaining control of the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. The plan includes launching a coastal or multi-front attack, supported by Saudi aerial support and coordinated with Yemeni forces. The operation is expected to commence between two weeks and several months after the U.S. elections, with intelligence support from the United States and military assistance from Pakistan and Turkey. The operation faces challenges due to the fragmentation of Yemeni factions and varying levels of military readiness. Meanwhile, countries like France and Pakistan have dispatched forces and defensive systems to bolster the protection of facilities and prepare for possible missile and drone attacks.
