Reuters showed photos of the damage caused by the Yemeni Rocketry Forces military operation that struck a Saudi Aramco oil company distribution station, with a winged missile, in Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea city of Jeddah.
Abdullah Al-Ghamdi, manager of the North Jeddah plant, told journalists on a tour that one of the 13 tanks used for diesel oil, gasoline and jet fuel at the facility is currently out of service. He described the site as a “critical facility” with total storage capacity of 5.2 million barrels. It can distribute more than 120,000 barrels of products per day domestically to the western Saudi regions of Jeddah, Mecca and al-Baha.
The Yemeni Armed Forces announced that the strike was carried out in response to the US-Saudi aggression’s military offensive and siege against Yemen for the past 6 years.
