Houthi Attacks Escalate on Saudi Civilian and Energy Infrastructure

Houthi forces have significantly escalated attacks on Saudi Arabia, directly targeting critical energy infrastructure, including Saudi Aramco headquarters in Dhahran, and civilian hubs like Riyadh airport. These strikes have resulted in civilian casualties, disrupted major events, and exposed vulnerabilities in Saudi air defenses, despite US-supplied systems. The full extent of damage to energy facilities and long-term impact on oil exports remain uncertain.
