Houthi Group Claims Drone Attack on Saudi Aramco’s Jazan Refinery
Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthi group claimed it carried out a drone attack against Saudi Aramco’s Jazan refinery in southwestern Saudi Arabia on Sunday
Saudi authorities reported a fire at the facility but said it was later extinguished, with no casualties reported.
The attack came just two days after Saudi Arabia signed a new defense pact with Türkiye and Pakistan, establishing a framework for mutual security cooperation amid escalating regional tensions
The timing of the attack has drawn particular attention as the Houthis have continued to threaten Saudi targets, while Riyadh seeks to strengthen its regional defense partnerships.
The Houthis’ claim of responsibility has been reported by multiple international outlets, while details of the extent of damage to the refinery remain limited.
