Attacks by Yemen's Houthi rebels have raised concerns regarding Saudi Arabia's air traffic, security, and economy. Analysts suggest the objectives behind these attacks may include retaliating against the Saudi-led coalition, exerting pressure on the Kingdom, and strengthening the Houthis' position for future peace talks. At the same time, these attacks could pose risks to Saudi Arabia's 'Vision 2030' plan and the stability of the Gulf region.
