The Houthi group in Yemen, which is backed by Iran, announced on Tuesday that it had launched a ballistic missile toward the Ras Tanura oil refinery in the Eastern Province of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
The Ras Tanura refinery is one of the most important oil refining facilities in the Kingdom, located in the Eastern Province near the coast. The information was reported based on the Houthis' announcement, and the article we received did not include further details about where the missile fell or about possible damage.
This announcement comes amid the continuing tension between the Houthis and Saudi Arabia for years, a tension linked to the ongoing conflict in Yemen. The news is directly relevant to readers in Saudi Arabia, as oil facilities affect the economy and domestic and global supplies.
So far, no confirmed information has been available from independent sources regarding the details of the announced attack. The reports are based on what the group itself announced, so observers are awaiting further clarification from official authorities.
