A fire occurred at an Aramco refinery in Jazan, Saudi Arabia, which has since been extinguished. While the Saudi Ministry of Energy acknowledged the incident, reports indicate that Yemen's Houthi rebels have claimed responsibility for a drone attack on the facility. The Houthis stated that the strike was conducted in retaliation for Saudi-led drone operations in the Yemeni provinces of Saada and Hajjah.

Simultaneous reports have identified a suspected attack on a separate Saudi gas facility located in Jubail. The incidents highlight ongoing regional tensions and the continued targeting of Saudi energy infrastructure amidst the conflict in Yemen.
