People are reading too much into this najran incident. Najran is right on the border with Yemen I mean exactly on the border no buffer there. So much so that about 8-10 years back there was no clear demarcation of the border even.
Last year when I was in Najran, I was standing in the city center and I looked towards the border and there were huge mountains on 2 sides. just below these mountains is the Najran city. All houties need to do is to climb up those mountains from their side and they can do whatever they want. That's exactly what they were doing, climbing up those mountains and firing mortars and RPGs into the city which was just below.
All I want to say is that this Najran incident is not the ultimate proof of saudi being defeated not even close. Yes they are in bad shape there as 70% of Najran population is Shia and have sympathies with Yemen. There are other conspiracy theories I heard while I was there but they are too ridiculous to mention here. By the way, the same is the case with Jezan city which is also on the southern border.
Whenever you will hear Saudi force beaten up it will always in these 2 cities because ground situation & geography is in favor of guerilla warfare there
