Oct 13,2023 11:01 am

Footage showed a huge fire at Abqaiq, site of Aramco is the largest oil-processing plant, while a second drone fires started attack in the Khurais oil field.

The fire is now said to be under control in two facilities, state-run media.

A spokesman for the Iran -aligned Houthi group in Yemen said it had deployed 10 Drones in the attacks.

The military spokesman, Yahya Sarea said al-Masirah TV is owned by the Houthi Movement , and is based in Beirut, that more attacks could be expected in The Future .

He said on Saturday the attack was one of the largest operations of the Houthi forces required had, in the interior of Saudi Arabia and was carried out in cooperation with the honorable people in the realm".

Saudi says Arabia, is to shut down about half its oil production,

the officials have not yet commented on who they think is behind the attacks.

"At 04:00 (01:00 GMT), the industrial security team of Aramco began dealing with fires in two of its facilities in Abqaiq and Khurais as a result. Drones ," the official Saudi Press Agency reported.

"Which controls two fire. "

There are no details about the damage, but Agence France-were press quoted interior Ministry spokesman Mansour al-Turki as saying there were no casualties.

The latest attack underlines the strategic threat posed by the Houthis, Saudi Arabia 's oil facilities.

The growing complexity of the Houthis' drone operations is bound to renew The Debate over how and where this function is coming from. Have Drones , the Houthis simply for weapons used in commercial, civil, or you have significant help from Iran ?

The trump-management is likely to point the finger directly to Tehran, but experts differ in the extent to which you think that Iran is facilitating the drone campaign.

The Saudi Air Force was hard-targets in Yemen for years. Now the Houthis have a capable, if much more limited, ability to Strike Back . It shows that the era of armed Drones -restricted operations to a handful of large Nations is over.

the drone Technology , albeit with varying degrees of complexity - is the same for all; from the USA to China, Israel and Iran . and Hezbolllah of the Houthis.

markets are waiting for news of important facilities,

analysis of the BBC's business correspondent, Katie Prescott

Aramco is The World 's largest oil companies, and these facilities are of importance.

The Khurais oil field produces about 1% of The World 's oil-and Abqaiq, The Company is the largest plant with a capacity of process 7% of The World 's supply. Even a short or partial interruption might impact on The Company , and the oil supply, due to their size

But whether this will come to impact on the price of oil on Monday will depend on how extensive the damage is. The markets have to digest now is the weekend information from Aramco and assessment of the long-term effects.

According to Richard Mallinson, geopolitical analyst at energy aspects, no reaction on Monday Morning is likely to be subdued as the markets are less concerned about supply than demand at the moment, due to the lower global Economic Growth and the ongoing trade war between the US and China.

However, there are concerns that the escalation of a wider risk could be that tensions in the region, potentially the fifth of the global oil threaten stock goes through the critical Strait of Hormuz.

Who are the Houthis are?

The Iran -aligned Houthi rebels, the Yemeni government and Saudi-led coalition has fought.

Yemen has been At War for 2015, to flee as President Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi was forced to the capital city of Sanaa by the Houthis. Saudi Arabia assures President Hadi and led a coalition of States in the Region against The Rebels .

The Coalition starts air strikes almost Every Day , while the Houthis often fire rockets into Saudi Arabia .

Mr Sarea, the Houthi group's military spokesman, said al-Masirah, the operations against Saudi targets would "only bigger and more painful than before, so long as it continues its aggression and blockade".

the Saudi-led coalition airstrikes regularly target Houthis in Yemen

Houthi fighters were made responsible for drone attacks on the Shaybah natural gas liquefaction plant in the last month, and on other oil facilities in may.

There have also been other sources of tension in the region, often from the rivalry between Saudi Arabia and Iran .

Saudi Arabia and the United States blames Iran for attacks in The Gulf on two oil tankers in June and July, allegations Tehran denies.

In may, four tankers, two of them, the Saudi-flag, were damaged by the explosions of the UAE's territorial waters in The Gulf of Oman.

Saudi-Arabia-And Then -National Security adviser John Bolton accused Iran . Tehran said the allegations were "ridiculous".

tension in vital shipping lanes deteriorates, if Iran shot down a U.S. drone surveillance over the Strait of Hormuz in June, what a month later.
