Who Will Win Saudi Arabia Vs Houthis War | Is Saudi Arabia Losing Against Houthis | The Blueprint
Is Saudi Arabia actually losing the war to the Houthis in Yemen? Saudi Arabia consistently ranks among the top five military spenders on the planet. Armed with state-of-the-art American F-15 fighter jets, Apache attack helicopters, and multi-million-dollar Patriot missile defense batteries, the kingdom launched Operation Decisive Storm in 2015 expecting to crush the Houthi rebellion in a matter of weeks. Fast forward over a decade later, and the outcome has defied every conventional military projection.The Houthis (Ansar Allah) haven’t just survived; they hold the capital city of Sana’a, govern northern Yemen where over 70% of the population lives, and project power directly into the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait, disrupting global shipping lanes at will. Meanwhile, Riyadh has spent hundreds of billions of dollars, watched its critical Aramco oil infrastructure get struck by cheap drones, and ultimately invited Houthi delegations to Riyadh for direct peace talks.
In this episode of The Blueprint, we break down the geopolitics, military strategy, and economics behind one of the most asymmetric conflicts of the 21st century:
Why modern air superiority fails against entrenched mountain guerrillas in the Sarawat range.
How the anti-Houthi coalition fractured between Saudi-backed forces and UAE-backed southern separatists (STC).
Who is arming and funding the Houthis, uncovering Iran’s low-cost proxy playbook, IRGC Quds Force supply lines, and opportunistic intelligence sharing from Moscow.
The economic math that broke Riyadh: $15,000 loitering suicide drones vs. $4,000,000 Patriot interceptors.
Did Saudi Arabia actually lose, or did it run into the brutal reality of an unwinnable war of attrition?
