EU expresses concern over Houthi raids on Saudi refineries and airports

The European Union voiced deep worry after Houthi militants launched coordinated attacks on Saudi Arabian oil refineries, the international airport in Riyadh and several other strategic sites. Ursula von der Leyen described the assaults as a deliberate effort to create instability, heighten violence and weaken global energy markets. She affirmed that the EU will continue to work closely with the Gulf Cooperation Council, ensuring that security and energy resilience remain top priorities in forthcoming diplomatic exchanges.
