Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis said they launched multiple drones at sensitive crude-oil supply and transportation sites connecting eastern Saudi Arabia with the Red Sea port of Yanbu. Military spokesman Yahya Saree said the operation targeted infrastructure along the kingdom's east-west oil route. He described the attack as a response to what the group called repeated Saudi drone incursions into Yemeni airspace. The initial claim did not identify individual facilities, disclose a damage assessment, say whether the drones reached their targets, or report casualties.
