ADEN/DUBAI, Sept 12 (Reuters) – Saudi Arabia has shut down its East-West pipeline after the vital oil conduitcame under aerial attack in the widening Middle East war.
The world’s largest crude oil exporter temporarily closed the pipeline after a drone attack that both Baghdad and Riyadh said had originated in Iraq, where Iranian-backed militias operate. Iraq dismissed a military commander on Saturday in response to the attack.
