Yesterday, the Saudi-led coalition attacked Houthi positions in the Yemeni capital, Sana'a. Houthi media reported that these attacks were accompanied by loud explosions in the city. The coalition spokesperson urged residents to stay away from fuel facilities near Sana'a to prevent potential damage.
Status of Fuel Facilities
The coalition spokesperson emphasized that the Houthis were using fuel facilities to store missiles and drones. These facilities are located on a hill overlooking Sana'a. However, Aramco stated that there is no oil storage in these facilities and that the recent attack has had no impact on oil reserves or the supply of oil to residents.
In light of these developments, tensions between Saudi Arabia and the Houthi group in Yemen continue. Reports indicate that the Saudi coalition will continue its attacks, and this situation could affect the oil market and regional security.
