  "summary": "Egypt has strongly condemned recent attacks on Saudi Arabia, expressing full solidarity with Riyadh. The attacks, carried out by Yemen's Houthi militia using ballistic missiles and drones, targeted civilian facilities and civilians in the cities of Khamis Mushait, Abha, and Taif. According to The Peninsula Qatar, the attacks resulted in injuries to a number of civilians and material damage to residential homes and vehicles.\n\nThe Houthi militia, backed by Iran, has been engaged in renewed fighting with Saudi-backed government forces in Yemen since the civil war reignited in July. The group has declared a maritime blockade on Riyadh and begun targeting its ships in the Red Sea. Channel News Asia reported that the Houthis seized control of Yemen's Red Sea coast and the Bab al-Mandab Strait last week.\n\nOil prices rose more than 2% following the attacks, with Brent crude futures up $2.5 to $108.18 a barrel, after the kingdom's East-West pipeline was left offline, SABC News reported. Saudi Arabia has vowed to respond firmly to the attacks, which wounded 13 people, Al-Monitor and Channel News Asia reported.",
