Late on Wednesday, the United States ordered certain diplomats and family members of U.S. government employees to depart Saudi Arabia. The directive follows a series of deadly attacks attributed to Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels, raising concerns that the regional conflict is escalating further.
The attacks included a strike on a civilian airport that resulted in one death and eight injuries, as well as a separate drone attack on an oil field that killed two people. Amid these security developments and escalating tensions in the region, global oil prices have risen.
