Yemen’s Houthis say they attacked Saudi Defence Ministry, Aramco in Yanbu and Dammam airport

·The Hindu·Impact 5/5 · Critical

Yemen's Houthi rebels have claimed responsibility for attacking Saudi Arabia's Defence Ministry, the Aramco-operated oil facilities in Yanbu, and Dammam airport. This escalation in violence could have significant implications for global oil markets, particularly if it disrupts Saudi Arabia's oil production. The attack on Aramco facilities is particularly concerning, given the company's importance to the global energy supply. This could lead to increased oil prices and economic uncertainty.
