"Ansar Allah" claims targeting the King Abdullah Financial Center in Riyadh, and Saudi Arabia announces an "attempt to target" an Aramco building.

The Ansar Allah Houthi group claimed responsibility for targeting the King Abdullah Financial Center in the Saudi capital, Riyadh, on Sunday, after the Saudi Ministry of Energy announced that a building belonging to the Aramco oil company was targeted and hit by shrapnel.

The military spokesman for the group, Yahya Saree, said in a statement, “The Yemeni armed forces carried out four military operations... with a number of ballistic and winged missiles and drones,” noting that one of them targeted King Khalid International Airport, Aramco tanks, and the financial center in Riyadh.

Strong explosions were heard in Riyadh on Sunday, following a warning of a hostile air threat, and the coalition announced the interception and destruction of three ballistic missiles and a cruise missile launched by the Houthis towards Riyadh and the eastern and southern regions.

The official spokesman for the coalition forces, Major General Turki Al-Maliki, said that the air defenses intercepted the missiles and destroyed them.

Al-Maliki later announced the interception and destruction of two cruise missiles in the Riyadh and Southern regions.

The Saudi Civil Defense had issued an early warning warning of a potential danger and “hostile air threat” in the Riyadh region, before a witness reported hearing several powerful explosions in the capital.

Several witnesses told AFP that the King Abdullah Financial Center in Riyadh was targeted in the Houthi attack on Sunday morning, with the Aramco building in the area damaged.

A witness, who requested to remain anonymous due to the sensitivity of the issue, said: “The Aramco Tower in Kafed was targeted,” referring to the name of the center based on the abbreviation of its name in English. Two other witnesses confirmed damage to the glass building.

The Saudi Ministry of Energy announced, on Sunday, that an Aramco oil company building in Riyadh had been subjected to a “targeting attempt,” according to what official media reported, after the Saudi-led coalition announced the interception of two ballistic missiles launched by the Houthis towards the capital.

The Saudi News Agency (SPA) reported a statement from the ministry that said: “An official source in the Ministry of Energy stated that one of the administrative buildings belonging to Saudi Aramco in the city of Riyadh was subjected to a targeting attempt today, Sunday, which resulted in shrapnel falling on the building, and limited damage to it, without any injuries or deaths.”

On Sunday morning, the coalition announced the interception and destruction of a ballistic missile launched by the Houthis towards the eastern region of Saudi Arabia.

The coalition spokesman, Major General Turki Al-Maliki, said, “The air defenses intercepted the missile and destroyed it, while the Saudi Civil Defense announced that the danger had passed in Dammam, Dhahran, Abqaiq, and Al-Hofuf, after activating the alert through the national early warning platform in emergency situations.”

On Saturday, Al-Maliki announced the interception and destruction of a cruise missile fired by the Houthis towards the Riyadh region.

The Saudi Civil Defense announced, at dawn on Sunday, that the danger had passed in several areas in the oil-rich eastern region of the Kingdom, including Dhahran, which includes the headquarters of the giant Saudi oil company Aramco.

The Civil Defense stated that the danger had also passed from Dammam, Abqaiq and Al-Ahsa Governorate.

The Eastern Province contains the majority of the Kingdom's oil and gas reserves, as well as the headquarters of Saudi Aramco, which was severely damaged in an attack in October.

The death toll from Saudi raids on Sanaa Governorate has risen to 33 people, according to what the Houthi Ministry of Health and Environment reported on Saturday.

The ministry's official spokesman, Anis Al-Asbahi, stated that "the toll of the horrific massacre committed by the Saudi aggression in the village of Al-Shariya in the Bani Hashish district, east of the capital, Sana'a... rose to 33 martyrs and 39 wounded."

Saba Agency had previously reported that “Saudi enemy aircraft targeted citizens’ homes in the village of Al-Shariya, resulting in the martyrdom of 27 citizens, most of them women and children, and the injury of 36 others.”

Al-Masirah TV also reported that “27 citizens, most of them women and children, were martyred and dozens injured as a result of the Saudi enemy aircraft’s massacre of citizens’ homes in the village of Al-Shariya” in Sana’a Governorate.

Saba and Al-Masirah pointed out that the toll was issued by the Houthi Ministry of Health.

Saba Agency quoted a local source as saying, “Saudi enemy aircraft targeted six homes in the area with several raids, in addition to paramedics and the roads leading to the crime scene.”

A video clip broadcast by Al-Masirah TV showed the bodies of dead and injured people, including children, being transported to a hospital, where the injured received treatment and medical care. She indicated that they were killed and wounded by Saudi strikes in the Bani Hashish District.

In the Yemeni governorate of Taiz, the suffering of the population is worsening with the deterioration of health conditions, in light of the lack of capabilities, the scarcity of medicines, and the decline in the ability of the remaining health facilities to respond to the needs of patients.

From the contact lines on the outskirts of the city of Taiz, displaced people spoke to the BBC about the details of their suffering and the difficulties they face in obtaining health care.

A woman complains about the lack of treatment, food and drink, in light of her son’s illness, her husband’s lack of work, and the lack of support. She tells the BBC: “We are marginalized and do not have anything.”

Another woman spoke to the BBC about her husband's illness with cancer, the frequent armed clashes in the region, and complained about the lack of money and salaries, the lack of food, and the extreme difficulty in obtaining the required treatments.

Yemeni officials linked to the government told Agence France-Presse on Saturday that Syria has begun deploying soldiers in Saudi Arabia and Yemen and intends to deploy more to support government forces and the coalition in confronting the Houthis.

In turn, an official in the Yemeni Presidential Command Council told AFP: “It was agreed between the Syrian side and Saudi Arabia to send about 3,000 fighters to fight against the Houthis,” noting that this was agreed upon during Al-Shara’a’s last visit.
