Enough drones and no one in the US will care what the Saudis do in Yemen. If someone on Capital Hill objects, they will be summarily dogpiled.

It is unknown to this write how well the Saudis and United Emirates are doing against drones, but the Saudis are quit proficient at artillery. they have had lots of practice in the past decade. Word is they are good at it.
