Yemen's Houthi rebels claimed on Thursday to have launched missile and drone attacks against Saudi Arabia, targeting "sensitive sites" of Saudi Aramco in Riyadh and facilities in the Red Sea city of Yanbu. Impacted by this, Brent crude futures, the global oil price benchmark, rose over 3% on Thursday, closing above $106.50 per barrel, after briefly surpassing $108 during the session. Saudi authorities have not yet confirmed whether the attacks caused any damage or casualties.
