In the alleged airstrikes by Saudi Arabia on Yemen's capital Sanaa, the building of the Houthi-controlled oil company and a gas station were targeted. The attacks came after Houthi missile attacks on Riyadh and the strike on Saudi Arabia's oil pipeline.
Clashes between Saudi Arabia and Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen are intensifying. According to the Houthi-affiliated SABA news agency, Saudi warplanes carried out a series of airstrikes on Sana'a on the morning of November 10. The Al-Mufazir gas station in the north of the city and a building belonging to the Yemen Oil Company in the south were hit.
FIRE BROKE OUT AT OIL FACILITIES
Houthi-affiliated sources reported that a fire broke out in gas transport vehicles at the gas station in the Bani Harith district of the capital. It was stated that civil defense teams began work to extinguish the flames. No statement has yet been made regarding whether anyone was killed or injured in the attacks. There was also no official confirmation from Saudi Arabian authorities regarding the airstrikes in the initial stage.
SAUDI ARABIA'S OIL PIPELINE WAS TARGETED
One day before the attack reports in Sana'a, the East-West Oil Pipeline, which connects oil production areas in eastern Saudi Arabia to the Red Sea coast, had been targeted. After the attack in the Medina region, a fire broke out on the pipeline, and Saudi officials announced that the fire had been extinguished, no lives were lost, and oil shipments were not affected. However, the Riyadh administration did not announce who was responsible for the attack.
MISSILE ATTACKS ON RIYADH
The Saudi-led coalition announced that ballistic and cruise missiles launched by the Houthis toward the capital Riyadh were destroyed by air defense systems. It was reported that a ballistic missile sent toward the country's south and an unmanned aerial vehicle in the oil-rich eastern region were also intercepted.
Mutual attacks have increased concerns about the security of energy facilities in the region, while bringing with them the worry that the conflict between Yemen and Saudi Arabia could expand further.
