Yemen’s Retaliatory Strikes Hit Aramco Facilities, Riyadh Financial Center
SANA’A -- Yemen’s armed forces carried out four missile and drone operations targeting Riyadh and Aramco facilities on Tuesday, including strikes on King Khalid International Airport and oil infrastructure, military spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Saree said, reporting successful hits and fires.
Saree said the first operation targeted King Khalid International Airport and several pumping stations on the East-West pipeline in Riyadh. The Yemeni army said the strikes hit their targets, causing fires and damage.
According to Saree, a second operation targeted Aramco facilities in Buqayq. In a third operation, the Yemeni army struck gatherings of Saudi mercenaries in the Al-Mudharibah and Ras al-Arah areas. A fourth operation targeted the financial center in Riyadh.
The Yemeni army called on companies and investors to withdraw their capital from Saudi Arabia. Saree also denied Riyadh’s claim that the East-West pipeline had been targeted in Medina.
The strikes came after overnight Saudi airstrikes hit a gas station in Sanaa’s Bani al-Harith district and a building belonging to the Yemen Petroleum Company.
Health ministry spokesman Dr. Anis Al-Asbahi said one citizen was killed and three wounded at the gas station, while six others were injured in the strike on the oil company building.
