Two individuals lost their lives and two others sustained injuries when Saudi air defenses intercepted a drone headed towards the Shaybah oilfield of Saudi Aramco on Wednesday. The drone attack occurred as Yemen's Houthis intensified their missile strikes against the kingdom. The incident resulted in a fire outside the facility's perimeter, yet it did not disrupt operations at the oilfield, according to the energy ministry, which cited an official source.
The ministry reported that the fatal drone attack claimed the lives of two residents, one Filipino and one Nepali, while injuring another two, including one Pakistani and one Indian, due to debris falling from the sky following the interception.
