Riyadh’s oil production was badly affected by these attacks, while the global market also saw an increase in oil prices. Although Yemeni Houthi rebels claimed responsibility for the attacks, Riyadh, Washington and several European governments say Iran was responsible for the attacks. Tehran, however, rejected its role in the drone attacks. Two days ago, Iranian authorities said that two Iranian rockets aboard the Saudi Arabian Sea were attacked by two rockets. However, no statement was issued by Saudi Arabia regarding the attack, nor did Saudi officials respond immediately to contact.
