Saudi Arabia's Energy Ministry said multiple energy and utility facilities in the country's south were attacked and set on fire by Yemen's Houthi movement on Tuesday morning local time, leaving at least 73 people injured and forcing some facilities to suspend operations, according to ETNet. The Saudi-led coalition in Yemen said the strikes hit civilian and economic facilities in Abha, Khamis Mushait, Najran and Jizan, and described the attack as a serious violation of Saudi sovereignty and a direct assault on the safety of the Saudi people. It said it would respond firmly. The coalition also said a Saudi Aramco refinery in Jizan was attacked on Monday.
