Saudi Arabia Under Attack: Houthi Militants Strike Riyadh and Aramco Facility
Houthi militants in Yemen launched drone and ballistic missile attacks on Saudi Arabia's capital city of Riyadh on Saturday, according to reports from BBC.
The statement comes hours after huge plumes of smoke were seen near Riyadh's main airport. The Houthi group claimed to have attacked a facility belonging to the world's largest oil company, Aramco, in the Red Sea city of Yanbu.
The attack on Saudi Arabia has sparked concerns that the conflict has the potential to escalate rapidly, with analysts warning of the risks of further escalation. The exact details of the damage caused by the attacks are still unclear.
