Houthis Launch Drone Attack on Saudi Aramco's Jazan Refinery
Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthis have claimed responsibility for an attack on Saudi Aramco's Jazan refinery using two drones. This marks their second attack on the facility in recent weeks, following a similar incident just days ago. The exact timing and details of the attack are unclear, but it comes as Saudi Aramco had planned to restart operations at the 400,000 bpd refinery later this month.
The Houthis have been targeting Saudi oil infrastructure for months, with attacks on facilities in Jazan and Yanbu in July causing significant disruptions. The group claims that their actions are aimed at pressuring the Saudi government to withdraw its forces from Yemen.
