Saudi Arabia eyes bigger missiles as Houthi threat meets Iran nuclear fears

Recent reports indicate that Saudi Arabia is stepping up its missile production capabilities by developing a new missile complex near Al-Dawadmi. This initiative seems focused on creating solid-fuel missiles, potentially improving the kingdom’s defense against threats, particularly from Yemen’s Houthi movement. As these advancements unfold, fears about a possible nuclear arms race with Iran grow, especially with the US civilian nuclear cooperation agreement raising concerns over regional nuclear proliferation. Recent reports indicate that Saudi Arabia is stepping up its missile production capabilities by developing a new missile complex near Al-Dawadmi.
