Yemeni forces target Saudi oil facilities and airports

Yemeni forces in Sana’a have announced the execution of six military operations targeting various oil, aviation, and military installations within Saudi Arabia over a 48-hour period. Using ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and drones, the strikes were described by spokesperson Brigadier General Yahya Saree as a response to over 200 Saudi airstrikes and missile attacks that targeted civilian objects in Yemen.

The operations reportedly included two phases of strikes against Aramco oil facilities in Yanbu and a direct hit on the Shaybah oil field, both of which resulted in large fires. Aviation infrastructure was also targeted, specifically King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, Abha International Airport, and the Khamis Mushait Air Base. Additionally, the forces claimed to have destroyed military radars on the Al-Husn and Al-Rahmah mountains and hit a Saudi naval task force camp.

The Yemeni forces stated they would continue these deep-strike operations until the blockade on Yemen is lifted.
