💢 Houthis seek to develop medium-range ballistic missiles with components imported from China

A report by Conflict Armament Research, obtained by The Wall Street Journal, stated that the Houthi group is seeking to develop advanced medium-range ballistic missiles using components imported from #China, in a move that could reduce its reliance on Iranian arms supplies.
According to the report, the group imported specialized components to manufacture a version of the Iranian precision-guided "Kheibar Shekan" ballistic missile, which has a range of about 1,930 kilometers, allowing it to reach targets throughout #SaudiArabia.
The missile features technology that allows the warhead to maneuver during its final approach to the target, in order to bypass air defense systems.
The report indicated that Chinese companies have become the largest source of intercepted shipments that were heading to the group, while Beijing affirms its commitment to the arms embargo imposed by the United Nations.
