  "account": "The Yemen-based Houthi group claimed responsibility for striking Saudi Aramco facilities in Dhahran on Wednesday, as Saudi officials reported a blast at a building housing the energy giant's operations center. Powerful explosions also struck the Saudi capital, Riyadh, with the coalition fighting the Houthis stating they had shot down a missile launched towards the city. The Houthis, backed by Iran, reported conducting a sophisticated military operation against Aramco using ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and drones, vowing further attacks on Saudi military targets and oil facilities. Meanwhile, a Saudi energy ministry official confirmed a limited fire at Aramco's headquarters, with significant damage to the tower. The ongoing conflict, which began in 2015, has seen Saudi Arabia launch strikes against Houthi strongholds in Yemen, including Sanaa, while the Houthis have targeted infrastructure outside the capital. The latest escalation follows a deadly attack on Riyadh's international airport on Saturday, which killed 13 people, prompting travel warnings from several nations.",
  "summary": "A Houthi military spokesman said their forces had conducted a military operation targeting Aramco in Dhahran, Riyadh airport and a refinery in the Saudi capital.",
