Yemen’s Houthi militia attack Saudi Aramco facility in Jeddah

Yemen’s Houthi militia on Monday announced that launched a long-range missile towards a large Saudi Aramco oil facility in the city of Jeddah.

“The attack targeted oil company Saudi Aramco’s distribution station in Jeddah,” Houthi-run al-Masirah TV reported citing the militia’s military spokesman Yahya Sarea as saying in a statement.

“The attack was in response to the blockade imposed by the Saudi-led coalition on Yemen,” Sarea said.

“We call on foreign companies to move away from Saudi vital facilities because they are on our target list,” he added in the statement.

Saudi Arabia is yet to comment yet on the alleged attack, Xinhua news agency reported.
