A cash-strapped country, a persistent war machine: How Houthis are risking MBS's Vision 2030

A missile does not need to destroy a skyline to threaten the future built around it. For Saudi Arabia, repeated Houthi attacks on airports and oil infrastructure have become more than a security threat. The recent strikes on Riyadh's airport have killed at least 13 people and injured more than 300, disrupted flights and affected major international events. They have also raised a larger question: Can one of the Middle East's wealthiest countries convince the world that it remains safe for business?That question is at the centre of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's Vision 2030. The ambitious plan seeks to reduce the kingdom's dependence on oil by attracting foreign investment, expanding tourism and turning Riyadh into a global business hub. Its success rests not only on grand projects and deep pockets, but also on the promise of stability.
