Saudi Arabia's air defenses have intercepted and destroyed several drones targeting oil facilities in the kingdom's eastern region, according to Defense Ministry spokesperson Turki al-Maliki.

The incident is believed to be linked to Iran-backed armed groups in Iraq, which Saudi Arabia claims launched the attacks from Iraqi territory for the second consecutive day.

This latest development comes a day after Saudi Arabia said it had intercepted several drones launched from Iraq that targeted petroleum facilities in the kingdom's east and the capital, Riyadh.
