Riyadh – Mubasher: An administrative building belonging to Saudi Aramco was targeted in an attack in Dhahran in the kingdom’s Eastern Province on 13 October, causing a limited fire, according to the Ministry of Energy.

Authorities responded to the incident and took the necessary measures, the ministry said, adding that no injuries or fatalities were reported.

The attack followed a series of strikes on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, prompting Saudi authorities to suspend airport operations while assessing damage and verifying the safety of its facilities.

Earlier, on the sidelines of the World Petroleum Congress (WPC Energy), the oil giant’s President and CEO, Amin Nasser, warned that attacks on regional energy infrastructure have consequences far beyond the Middle East, affecting economies and markets worldwide.

He noted that disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz, alongside attacks on energy facilities, have highlighted the interconnected nature of global supply chains.
