Saudi Arabia lifted an alert in Khamis Mushait following a major Houthi attack on an airbase and oil infrastructure that wounded 73 people and caused fires. The conflict between Saudi Arabia and the Iran-aligned Houthis continues to escalate, heightening regional tensions after a 2022 truce.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You face a rising security risk as attacks now directly target Saudi oil and military sites, signalling that regional conflict could disrupt supply chains and investor confidence. Review your risk exposure to Saudi and Gulf partnerships and seek alternatives for critical infrastructure dependencies.
