Houthis say no attacks against Saudi Arabia conducted today, after coalition forces report missile downed
Houthis say no attacks against Saudi Arabia conducted today, after coalition forces report missile downed Yahya Saree, Houthi military spokesperson, has confirmed that the group have not launched any attacks against Saudi Arabia on Thursday. This comes after Saudi-led coalition forces reported that it had downed a cruise missile which had been fired towards Medina.
CAIRO — Iran-backed Houthi rebels launched an overnight strike against the headquarters of Saudi state-owned oil company Aramco, according to two regional officials on Wednesday. The attack, which took place in the eastern Saudi Arabian city of Dhahran, caused damage to the offices of Aramco's chief executive and other top officials.
The officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity due to their lack of authorization to discuss the matter publicly, stated that the building's top three floors were impacted by the strike. There were no reported casualties. The Houthi group had previously warned they intended to target Dhahran with a ballistic missile. On Wednesday evening, Houthi-run broadcaster al-Masirah reported additional strikes on the capital Sanaa, attributing the attacks to Saudi Arabia.
The Saudi coalition has yet to comment on the strikes. The incidents involving smoke rising from some of Saudi Arabia's most critical facilities in recent days have caused alarm in the region and global markets, while raising questions for U.S. President Donald Trump, who has reportedly been considering whether to assess the United States' next steps.
