Saudi Arabia says oil facilities near Riyadh attacked
RIYADH/DUBAI - Saudi Arabia said armed drones struck two oil pumping stations in the kingdom on Tuesday in what it called a"cowardly" act of terrorism two days after four Saudi oil tankers were sabotaged off the coast of the United Arab Emirates.
Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said there would not be war with the United States despite mounting tensions over Iranian nuclear capabilities, its missile program and its support for proxies in Yemen, Iraq, Syria and Lebanon. U.S. national security agencies believe proxies sympathetic to or working for Iran may have sabotaged the tankers off the UAE coast rather than Iranian forces themselves, a U.S. official familiar with the latest U.S. assessments said on Tuesday.
The Houthis have repeatedly hit Saudi cities with drones and missiles, but two Saudi sources told Reuters this was the first time a facility of the state-run Aramco had been attacked by drones.
