沙特阿拉伯暂时关闭了其重要的东西输油管道——一条横跨阿拉伯半岛、长1200公里(746英里)的原油输送管道——此前该管道于周五遭到多架无人机袭击。沙特外交部表示,无人机袭击了利雅得和麦地那地区的管道,造成人员受伤和财产损失,现场还发生了火灾。

据伊拉克总理阿里·扎伊迪办公室称,此次袭击源自伊拉克东南部的迈桑省。伊拉克政府谴责了这次袭击,一名伊拉克军事指挥官在调查确认无人机确实从伊拉克境内发射后,于周六凌晨被撤职。沙特阿拉伯表示目前不会采取军事回应,而是将支持伊拉克政府防止今后从伊拉克境内发起针对沙特及其邻国的袭击的努力。管道关闭切断了沙特石油出口的一条重要渠道,加剧了自今年3月以来霍尔木兹海峡关闭已造成的运输中断,与此同时,也门胡塞武装正另行收紧对红海曼德海峡的控制,进一步加剧了地区石油航运路线所承受的压力。
