Saudi civil defence gives all-clear after alerts in Eastern Province

Saudi Arabia's civil defense agency lifted alerts across several areas in the Eastern Province on Sunday, including Dhahran, home to Saudi Aramco, following an initial warning of potential danger. The all-clear was also extended to Dammam, Abqaiq and Al-Ahsa governorate, according to the civil defense. The Eastern Province is home to the majority of the kingdom's oil and gas reserves, along with Saudi Aramco's headquarters, which was damaged in an attack earlier this year.

The Saudi-led coalition in Yemen reported intercepting a ballistic missile launched by the Houthi group towards the Eastern region shortly after the all-clear was given.
