Saudi-Led Coalition Strikes Yemen Oil Facility Amid Houthis' Threats to Saudi Sites
The Saudi-led coalition has warned civilians to evacuate the Yemen Petroleum Company's Al-Sabaha Central Station in Houthi-controlled Sanaa ahead of planned airstrikes. The coalition carried out strikes on oil facilities west of Sanaa amid escalating conflict with Iran-backed Houthi rebels, who have threatened retaliation against Saudi Arabia's oil infrastructure, including Aramco sites and Riyadh airport. The Yemen Petroleum Company stated the targeted facility held no petroleum stocks, assuring fuel supplies remain unaffected. The conflict follows recent Houthi missile and drone attacks on Saudi targets.
