Yemen's Houthis Claim Missile Attacks on Saudi Oil Tankers

Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi movement has claimed responsibility for missile strikes against two Saudi oil tankers. The group stated it targeted one vessel off the coast of Yanbu, a key Red Sea oil terminal, and another in the Gulf of Aden.

The attacks were reported by Reuters, citing a Houthi military spokesman. No immediate confirmation or damage assessment was provided by Saudi authorities.

Such incidents in critical shipping lanes can raise concerns over oil supply disruptions and regional stability.
