Houthis launch attack on oil and utility targets in Saudi Arabia
Houthi rebels in Yemen launched attacks against Saudi Arabia, targeting oil infrastructure and utility facilities and injuring up to 70 people. The Saudi Energy Ministry has temporarily suspended operations at affected oil facilities in the southern region while firefighters extinguish the blazes.
These attacks highlight ongoing regional instability and could impact global oil prices and energy supplies, exacerbating existing market volatility.
The episode also covers U.S. military strikes on Iranian crude oil tankers in the Persian Gulf, the sinking of the Motor Tanker Kylo, and new U.S. Treasury sanctions targeting the Iranian aviation industry.
