Yemen’s Houthi rebels attacked at least six sites across Saudi Arabia late Saturday and early on Sunday, including some run by state oil giant Saudi Aramco.
The Iran-backed group targeted an Aramco fuel depot in Jazan in the southwest of the kingdom and a liquefied natural gas plant in the Red Sea city of Yanbu, the official Saudi Press Agency reported. The Houthis said on Twitter that they were responsible.
They used drones as well as ballistic and cruise missiles, according to SPA. Saudi forces said they intercepted a missile and shot down nine drones. Another attack targeted an Aramco oil products distribution station in Jeddah, causing a limited fire and was controlled, SPA reported later on Sunday.
