Yemen’s Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree claimed the group launched dozens of missiles and drones at Saudi Arabia, targeting Aramco facilities in Abha, Najran and Jizan, along with Khamis Mushait Air Force Base. Saree warned that the Houthis would continue operations “deep into Saudi territory” and said they would not hesitate to respond to further aggression. The claims mark another reported escalation targeting Saudi energy and military infrastructure, raising tensions between the Houthis and Riyadh amid ongoing regional instability and conflict.

00:00For many long years, our beloved Yemeni people have been continuously subjected to relentless aggression and a suffocating siege imposed
00:07by the criminal Saudi enemy.
00:08Over the course of the past three days, the criminal Saudi enemy has launched a brutal, savage, and entirely unjust
00:14campaign of aggression against our people,
00:16carrying out no fewer than 121 separate airstrikes originating from the King Khalid Air Base in Kamis Mushait and the
00:23King Fahd Air Base in Taif.
00:25These strikes targeted the governorates of Mareeb, Al-Bayda, Al-Hudayda, Taiz, and Al-Jaf, committing a series of major
00:32crimes,
00:32the latest being the horrific Al-Jaf massacre, which claimed the lives of many innocent inmates held at the central
00:37prison in Al-Hazm City.
00:39What?
00:40Including innocent women and young children who were merely visiting the area.
00:44This is clearly part of their ongoing effort to occupy our sovereign country and slaughter our people in a major
00:49systematic and comprehensive escalation,
00:51all in the direct service of the American and Israeli enemy.
00:55In response to this brutal aggression and to meet this comprehensive escalation with a comprehensive escalation of our own...
01:01The Yemeni Armed Forces have successfully executed a highly specialized and extensive military operation
01:08that targeted the Aramco facilities in Abba and Najran, the economic city, the Aramco site in Jizan, and the Kamis
01:15Mushait Air Base,
01:16utilizing a massive barrage of dozens of ballistic missiles and unmanned aerial drones.
01:22By the grace of God, the strikes were precise and hit their targets directly, causing significant and extensive damage to
01:28those facilities.
01:29The Yemeni Armed Forces hold the criminal Saudi enemy entirely responsible for this dangerous and unprovoked escalation.
01:37Every single attack launched against our country and our people will be met with a swift and firm response.
01:43We will certainly not hesitate to launch even stronger, more painful, and broader strikes against the criminal Saudi enemy.
01:49God willing!
01:51All the movements, attacks, and mobilizations of the criminal Saudi enemy will not intimidate our dear country, the Yemen of
01:59Islam and Arabism.
02:00They will not break the resolve of our faithful, free, and Mujahid people, the people of faith and wisdom.
02:06Instead, it will only increase their determination to face every aggression and every attack.
02:12Our people stand for the truth, while our enemy stands for falsehood, and we know that falsehood is bound to
02:18perish.
02:19We solemnly affirm that by God's power and strength, we are continuing our operations deep into Saudi territory,
02:25targeting their mobilizations, and maintaining the equation of siege for siege until their aggression finally stops
02:31and the suffocating siege on our country is completely lifted.
02:40Saudi Arabia's critical energy infrastructure is under fresh pressure.
02:46Saudi Aramco's 400,000-barrel-per-day Jizan refinery on the Red Sea coast was reportedly struck again Monday
02:55in the latest attack blamed on Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthi rebels.
03:00The reported strike comes after weeks of repeated attacks that have already left the major refinery offline or severely disrupted.
03:10Sources familiar with the matter say the latest incident was similar in scale to previous attacks.
03:16The Financial Times reports that the extent of the new damage is still being assessed.
03:22Aramco has not immediately issued a public statement on the latest impact.
03:27The Jizan refinery has become a recurring target as the wider regional conflict continues to spread across energy infrastructure.
03:36The Houthis have repeatedly claimed responsibility for attacks on the facility, using ballistic missiles and drones.
03:43The group has described its strikes as retaliation for what it alleges are Saudi drone operations over Yemen.
03:51But for Saudi Arabia, the repeated attacks pose a growing challenge.
03:56Jizan is one of the kingdom's major refining facilities, producing gasoline, ultra-low-sulfur diesel and other refined petroleum products.
04:06And every additional disruption threatens to tighten fuel supplies across the region.
04:11The refinery has struggled to return to normal operations since late July.
04:17An earlier Houthi attack damaged its tank farm and the Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle, or IGCC, power complex.
04:26Further strikes in August compounded the disruption.
04:30Now, the latest reported hit raises fresh questions over how quickly Saudi Aramco can restore the refinery to full capacity.
04:39The consequences are already visible in regional fuel markets.
04:44Refined product shipments from Jizan fell sharply after the initial damage.
04:49Data showed diesel and other product loadings dropping to zero in August.
04:54That disruption matters, because crude oil can often be redirected through alternative export routes.
05:01Refined fuels are different.
05:02Saudi Arabia has been shifting more crude exports westward through the east-west pipeline and Red Sea terminals, including Yanbu,
05:11helping bypass disruption around the Strait of Hormuz.
05:15But moving crude does not replace lost refining capacity.
05:19The additional pressure on fuel markets already dealing with elevated refining margins and wider regional instability.
05:28The location of Jizan makes the refinery particularly vulnerable.
05:32The facility sits close to Yemen, directly along a strategic section of Saudi Arabia's Red Sea coastline.
05:40That proximity has made Saudi energy infrastructure a persistent target, as Houthi attacks have resumed amid the broader regional war.
05:50The repeated disruption is now exposing a critical weakness.
05:54Saudi Arabia may be able to redirect crude through pipelines and alternative terminals.
06:00The latest strike is also being watched closely by global oil markets.
06:05Oil prices rose modestly after news of the reported attack, as traders assessed the cumulative impact of repeated disruptions to
06:14Saudi refining capacity.
06:16The immediate concern is not necessarily a collapse in Saudi crude exports.
06:21The bigger risk is the loss of refined fuel production.
06:25With Jizai already heavily disrupted, another strike could extend the outage and tighten regional supplies of gasoline and diesel.
06:33The latest attack sends a stark message.
06:37Saudi Arabia's energy network remains exposed despite efforts to reroute crude and protect key infrastructure.
06:45For the Houthis, repeated attacks on Jizan offer a way to apply pressure far beyond Yemen's borders.
06:53For Saudi Arabia, every additional strike threatens another critical link in the regional fuel system.
