Oct 3 (Reuters) – A large plume of smoke and fire was seen rising in the vicinity of an Aramco facility in Riyadh on Saturday, a witness told Reuters.
There was no immediate confirmation from Saudi authorities about the fire. Aramco did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The fire comes amid escalating hostilities between Saudi Arabia and Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthis, who have stepped up attacks on Saudi cities and energy infrastructure.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for Saturday’s fire.
