Yemen's Houthi rebels, a proxy of Iran's terror network, said they attacked multiple oil facilities in eastern Saudi Arabia with drones, targeting infrastructure used to transport crude oil to the Red Sea port of Yanbu in what they say is retaliation for a Saudi strike on their territory.


Houthi ‘spokesman,’ the terrorist Yahya Saree said the Iran-backed group struck “several facilities and sensitive targets involved in the supply and transport of crude oil from eastern Saudi Arabia to Yanbu using multiple drones.”

The terrorist organization claimed the operation came in response to a similar Saudi attack on their territory.

The strike poses another obstacle to Saudi oil exports to the rest of the world.
