Saudi Arabia intercepted Iran-backed Houthi missiles and drones
Saudi Arabia intercepted Iran-backed Houthi missiles and drones, while Houthis claimed attacks on Saudi airports and energy sites, driving oil prices to a six-month high. The Saudi-led coalition in Yemen stated that two drones and a ballistic missile were intercepted heading for Riyadh, and 10 ballistic missiles and a cruise missile were intercepted targeting the southern region. The Houthis claimed seven military operations using ballistic missiles and drones, with targets including Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport and Saudi Aramco facilities in Yanbu. King Khalid International Airport resumed operations on Sunday after a previous strike on October 10. The ongoing conflict, combined with President Trump's remarks last week about potential fresh U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran after the November 3 midterm elections, pushed Brent crude to a six-month high of $116.72 a barrel on Friday, with WTI settling at $103.27.
