Attacks by Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis are hurting Saudi Arabia's oil industry and risk dragging it back to full-scale war -- something it seems desperate to avoid. Saudi jets carried out dozens of airstrikes in response, a reminder of the Yemen war when tens of thousands of strikes from the Saudi-led coalition hammered Houthi-held areas until a ceasefire in 2022.
