Houthis Claim Drone Strike on Aramco Refinery in Jazan

The Houthi militia has claimed responsibility for a drone attack targeting an Aramco refinery in the southwestern Saudi Arabian region of Jazan, marking the latest assertion of strikes against the Kingdom's energy infrastructure.

Saudi authorities and official entities within the Kingdom have not yet confirmed the alleged attack or any damage to the refinery. No official statement has been released regarding the extent of any potential damage or losses resulting from the Houthi claims.

This claim follows an earlier announcement by the Houthi militia on August 13, asserting they had targeted the same Aramco refinery in Jazan with two drones. At that time, Saudi authorities reported extinguishing a fire at one of the refinery's facilities, confirming no injuries were sustained.

Independent verification of the new alleged attack or the extent of damage to the facility remains unavailable. The Houthi militia continues to announce military operations targeting Saudi territories and installations.
