The Saudi-led coalition issued an urgent warning for civilians to evacuate the Yemen Petroleum Company’s Al-Sabaha central station in the Houthi-held capital, Sanaa. The evacuation directive preceded a planned precision military operation, marking a sharp escalation following recent Houthi drone and missile strikes targeting Saudi territory. In response to the warning, Houthi-aligned media and officials issued counter-threats, warning of retaliatory drone attacks against Saudi Aramco facilities and regional economic hubs. Local reports indicated that the targeted facility held no active petroleum reserves, prompting state companies to reassure residents that domestic fuel supplies remain secure. The unfolding confrontation compounds regional instability, keeping critical aviation corridors and energy supply chains across the Arabian Peninsula on high alert.
