Jizan, Saudi Arabia

Aramco oil facilities in Jizan were struck on Monday, a month after an earlier attack disrupted production at the refinery there, the Financial Times reported, citing two people familiar with the matter; damage was being assessed. Saudi Arabia did not acknowledge the attack and no group claimed it, though ISW assessed a Houthi missile strike was likely.

Why it matters

Jizan hosts one of the kingdom's largest refineries, and repeated hits on its Red Sea coast threaten the export route Riyadh relies on while Hormuz is shut.
