In a fresh escalation of tensions between Yemen's Houthi rebels and Saudi Arabia, the Aramco Tower, a prominent skyscraper located in the heart of Riyadh's central financial district, was hit by an air attack on Saturday. The Houthis, who control Yemen's Saba news agency, claimed responsibility for targeting Riyadh's business zone without explicitly naming the Aramco Tower. While Saudi Arabia's energy ministry reported only minor damage and no casualties, footage authenticated by BBC Verify suggests more extensive harm, with at least one floor appearing to have been struck by a missile or drone. The Houthis also asserted attacks on Riyadh's airport and Aramco oil storage facilities in separate strikes. Saudi Arabia's air defenses intercepted and destroyed several incoming missiles. This incident follows the Houthis' accusation of killing at least 33 people, including civilians, in an air strike on Yemen a day earlier. The conflict between the Houthis and Saudi-backed forces, which has been ongoing for over a decade, has intensified recently, especially since the Iran crisis erupted. An informal ceasefire unraveled in July following the Houthis' announcement of a maritime embargo against Saudi Arabia and increased missile and drone attacks on Saudi targets. The United Nations reports that more than 1,600 people have been killed and over 300,000 displaced since fighting resumed. Saudi Arabia has yet to comment on the latest developments.
