Houthis Launch Oil Facility Attack Amid Escalating Tensions with Saudi Arabia

Houthi rebels have claimed responsibility for an attack on Saudi Aramco oil facilities in a series of escalating tensions between the two sides.

The incident occurred after Saudi Arabia carried out airstrikes against Hodeidah, a territory held by Yemen's Houthi rebels, on July 24 (local time).

The Houthis retaliated with an attack on Saudi oil facilities the following day, escalating the conflict into a full-blown confrontation.
