Houthis reportedly strike Saudi national oil company headquarters
The attacks follow a Houthi onslaught that killed 13, injured hundreds, and forced Riyadh’s airport to shut at least through Saturday.
Yemen's Houthi group, formally known as Ansar Allah, has vowed to continue striking petrochemical facilities in Saudi Arabia as it escalates its retaliation against the kingdom. The group has already targeted Saudi Aramco facilities in Dhahran, the King Khalid International Airport, and an Aramco refinery in Riyadh using ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and drones.
The Houthi spokesperson Yahya Saree stated that this escalation will continue in the coming days, targeting airports and oil facilities. The ongoing attacks have raised concerns about the impact on the global economy, with the International Monetary Fund's managing director, Kristalina Georgieva, warning that rising energy costs could affect people worldwide.
