The Houthis have been attacking key Saudi sites in retaliation for the kingdom's backing of government forces in Yemen's reignited civil war.

RIYADH – An administrative building belonging to Saudi Arabian state-owned oil company Saudi Aramco in the eastern city of Dhahran was attacked, causing a limited fire, the Energy Ministry said in a statement on Wednesday as fighting between Yemen’s Iran-allied Houthis and the kingdom intensified. Authorities responded to the incident late on Tuesday and took necessary measures, the ministry said, adding that there were no injuries or deaths. A company source said earlier that a ballistic missile hit the Aramco headquarters complex in Dhahran.

The source said an office tower in the complex was struck and that its top three floors were damaged. The source and two other people with knowledge of the matter said the building was on fire.
