Both the Houthis and the Saudi-led coalition conducted strikes targeting energy infrastructure in recent events. Four individuals were injured due to debris from intercepted missiles in Riyadh. Saudi Arabia reported that an attack on the headquarters of state oil firm Aramco caused a "limited fire." The fire at the Aramco complex in Dhahran did not result in any casualties, according to the country's Energy Ministry. A source from the company informed Reuters that a ballistic missile struck the upper floors of an office building within the complex, which is a significant operational site for Aramco, the world's largest oil company. Earlier, Saudi authorities announced the interception of several missiles, including those over Riyadh. The four injuries in Riyadh involved two women, a man, and a child, with 15 homes reported damaged. Residents in the capital heard a loud explosion, and alerts were sent to their phones warning of a "hostile aerial threat." The Saudi-led coalition, which is engaged in conflict with the Houthis, targeted locations in the Yemeni capital of Sanaa on Tuesday, as reported by Houthi-run broadcaster Al Masirah. Locals in Sanaa reported strong explosions following a coalition spokesperson's warning for residents to evacuate the all-Suhaba fuel facility, which is associated with the Yemeni Oil Company, ahead of a strike. The coalition spokesperson stated that the Houthis were using the facility for missile and drone storage. However, the company claimed that the storage facilities were empty, and the strike did not impact oil reserves or supplies for residents. The situation continues to develop as updates are provided regarding the escalation between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis.
