The Houthi rebels in Yemen have established an international supply network that enables them to assemble weapons locally, increasingly using components from China. Recent attacks on Saudi Arabia highlight the effectiveness of their locally produced missiles and drones. While Iran remains a key military ally, the Houthis have shifted towards assembling weapons from imported parts, including dual-use materials. This transformation has accelerated since 2020, with China emerging as a significant source of components. The Houthis utilize a complex logistics system to transport materials, often disguising them among civilian goods. Despite international sanctions, their production capabilities persist, complicating Saudi defense efforts.
