Corroborated · Yanbu, Saudi Arabia ·
The Houthis claim an attack on Aramco facilities in Yanbu, as reported by Middle East Eye and The Hindu, and the claim is the group's own. Manila Standard reports that a Filipino oil field worker died in a Houthi drone attack on a Saudi oil field, without naming Yanbu. An anonymous X account cites unverified reports that the Houthis are targeting oil installations deep inside Saudi Arabia, and no official confirmation has been found.

Details by origin
Each detail, with the independent origins that reported it. An origin is the outlet or channel where a claim first appeared; reposts count once. A row counts no more independent origins than the event does above; where it lists more, it says so. This counts reports: it is not a measure of accuracy, and it does not change the event's status. "Reports differ" means two origins gave values that cannot both be true; it is about that detail, not about whether the incident happened.
