The cost of the U.S. Military campaign against the Houthis may exceed $1 billion, according to the New York Times.

Since the campaign began, several U.S. Military drones have been shot down by the Houthis, including three MQ-9 Reapers, which cost an estimated $30 million each.
Some officials worry that operations in Yemen are depleting U.S. Stockpiles needed for potential conflicts abroad.
