Aramco Plant Targeted by Houthi Drones Amid Red Sea Tensions

Tensions in the Red Sea corridor escalated on Sunday when Houthi militants launched a coordinated drone assault on Saudi Aramco's Jazan refinery complex. The attack, which the group said was a retaliation for Saudi operations in Yemen's Saada and Hajjah regions, sparked a fire at one of the refinery's processing units. Saudi authorities reported that emergency responders contained the blaze quickly and that the incident caused no fatalities. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs welcomed a recent United Nations Security Council resolution condemning Houthi missile strikes against commercial shipping in the Red Sea, urging the international community to adopt stricter measures against actions that threaten maritime navigation and global trade.
