Aramco Skyscraper In Riyadh Damaged In "Attempted Attack"

Aramco Skyscraper In Riyadh Damaged In "Attempted Attack"

What's behind this

Saudi Arabia's air defences intercepted a Houthi missile attack aimed at Riyadh, destroying two ballistic missiles but some debris fell on a Saudi Aramco building in the King Abdullah Financial District. The impact damaged multiple floors of the administrative tower, shattering windows and harming part of the façade, though the ministry said the damage was minor and no casualties were reported. The incident follows a pattern of recent strikes on Aramco facilities, including tankers, refineries, storage areas and the company headquarters, which have been repeatedly targeted by the Houthis.
