Saudi Arabia accuses the Houthis of joining in strikes on the oil industry.

Saudi Arabia announced that Defense countries intercepted Drone, which was flying towards one of the country's major oil fields. According to the latest data, this is the Shayba (Shaibah) field in the southeast of the country. The geological hydrocarbon reserves at this field are colossal – nearly 3 billion tons of oil and over 700 billion cubic meters of gas.

It's noteworthy that the UAV, according to Saudi Arabian command, entered Saudi airspace from Yemen. This has led to accusations being leveled against the Ansar Allah group, the Yemeni Houthis.



Bahraini authorities are declaring a state of emergency following an explosion at the country's largest oil refinery. As Military Review previously reported, a drone struck an oil refinery owned by Bapco. This refinery, among other things, served the needs of the 5th Army's main base. fleet USA.

Video footage of the situation at the plant in Bahrain this morning is shown:


The Bahraini company's management is declaring force majeure, adding that the fire at the plant has not yet been contained:

Work is underway to prevent the fire from spreading to other oil refineries.

Meanwhile, oil prices have fallen slightly from early morning levels. Instead of $119 per barrel, Brent is trading at $107-$108, and instead of $100, Urals is selling for around $90 per barrel.

Trump claims this is just a short-term spike and that prices will fall sharply very soon. But American shale producers don't want prices to fall, and they've stated this quite openly.

      hi A counter-offer to support the courageous guys in sandals, and to wish the shale workers a speedy demise along with the Zionists and the red-haired swindler from Washington!

        I don't quite understand what "accuses" means?
        On the contrary, if the Houthis hadn't joined the "fun," then yes. They would have been to blame.
        Iran feeds them. And now the benefactor is under attack.

      Not at all. With high prices, shale production will become more profitable, and prices will consequently fall.

        Yeah, but are shale producers really interested in lower prices? They're already in the black in the current situation. Surplus profits are easier to achieve through rising prices than through increased oil production. Incidentally, the number of shale deposits is unlikely to increase.

    So remove the American military bases from your territory and there will be peace, friendship, and chewing gum... You can't? Then what more do you want? Did those Americans help you?

      "So get rid of the American military bases."
      Actually, they have their own long-standing squabbles there.
      In December 2025, Saudi Arabia publicly accused its close ally, the UAE, of "extremely dangerous" actions in Yemen and launched "limited" airstrikes on the Yemeni seaport of Mukalla.

        The Houthis are supplied by Iran, and for the Persians, it is now of utmost importance that the Yankees leave the Middle East, then they can take Israel while it's still warm... and a little later, the world will have peace for many years to come with all the Gulf States.

    Isn't it possible? Liberating our brothers in mind from the yoke of the Washington Jews. Blinken's face alone is enough to justify any bombing. And after the Saudi strikes on the Houthis, there's no question at all. Until the dandruff and yarmulkes stop flying, we need to keep on pounding.

      If only the Jews in Russia would be freed from the yoke... There would be no price and life would be normal... But as it is, wherever you spit, greedy thieves rob Russia without a twinge of conscience...

        In Russia, this is an ongoing and never-ending process; since the beginning of the SVO alone, it has become so much cleaner without them... So there is a chance

    I wonder – what did you expect? That you'd be patted on the head for allowing the US to use its territory to terrorize Iran? It's painfully familiar – and what about us?

    The fucking Peacemaker stirred up the anthill. Now it won't calm down for a long time. And the Jews will take advantage of the noise and grab some more land.

    How will prices fall? Unless the US, a reliable partner, starts buying less oil, using up its strategic oil reserves, halved by Joe's self-propelled gun. I don't see any other options yet. The current situation with US production and consumption (in barrels) is 13,6 million/21 million/21 million of oil products. Venezuela won't save us. Something's wrong with Trump's arithmetic.

      Numbers per day. And the strategic reserve is not 40 days of war, but 20. "Peacemaker" self-propelled Joe halved.

    The Houthis need to hit the port of Eilat in Israel. There's some kind of buzz with tankers there. The Houthis have their sights set on the place.

    The Houthis are great, reliable allies. Unlike some of the fathers.

    The higher the prices, the more profitable production becomes for US shale producers.

    According to the Saudi command, it entered the kingdom's airspace from Yemen. Accusations are being brought in connection with this.

    Saudi Arabia, as the birthplace, successor, and disseminator of radical Islam (Salafism, also known as Wahhabism) throughout the world, should be completely consumed by the flames of hell... To the ground. So let them sit there and keep their mouths shut.

    Those damned Yemenis don't like the Saudis attacking their country. What the hell is going on in the world?! Does no one even want to adhere to rules anymore? Oh, oh, oh...
