Houthi Strike Hits Saudi Aramco Refinery in Jizan Amid Escalating Tensions

The Houthi movement in Yemen has launched an attack on a Saudi Aramco oil refinery in Jizan, marking a significant escalation in cross-border tensions. According to reports, Saudi authorities had issued warnings to residents in Jizan and the nearby city of Yanbu ahead of the strike.

A separate development saw Greece's armed forces announce that their Patriot air defense system intercepted and destroyed two ballistic missiles launched from Yemen towards an oil refinery in Yanbu.

The attack on Jizan comes amid escalating tensions between the Houthi movement, backed by Iran, and Saudi Arabia. The conflict has been marked by a series of retaliatory attacks, with both sides accusing each other of aggression.
