Houthi rebels in Yemen have claimed responsibility for a successful attack on facilities belonging to Saudi Aramco, the state-owned oil company. The attacks targeted installations in the Saudi cities of Jizan and Yanbu, located on the Red Sea coast. Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Saree announced the operation, indicating a continuation of the group's aggressive posture against Saudi Arabia. This attack represents a potential escalation in the ongoing conflict, raising concerns about global oil supplies. The extent of the damage to the refinery is currently unknown, but the assault highlights the vulnerability of key Saudi oil infrastructure. This is the latest in a series of attacks by the Houthis targeting Saudi Arabia, often claiming retaliatory action for the Saudi-led coalition’s involvement in Yemen’s civil war.
