أَعْلَنَتْ جَماعَةُ أَنْصارِ اللّٰهِ فِي الْيَمَنِ، يَوْمَ الْأَحَدِ ٩ أُغُسْطُسَ، أَنَّها اسْتَهْدَفَتْ مِصْفاةَ أرامكو فِي مَدِينَةِ جازانَ بِطائِرَةٍ مُسَيَّرَةٍ.
وَقالَتْ وِزارَةُ الطّاقَةِ السُّعُودِيَّةُ إِنَّ حَريقًا وَقَعَ فِي مَنْشَأَةٍ تَتْبَعُ لِلْمِصْفاةِ، صَباحَ الْيَوْمِ نَفْسِهِ. وَأَضافَتْ أَنَّ الْحَريقَ أُطْفِئَ، وَلَمْ يُصَبْ أَحَدٌ.
وَلَمْ تَقُلِ الْوِزارَةُ ما سَبَبُ الْحَريقِ. وَيَأْتِي هٰذا بَعْدَ هَجَماتٍ أُخْرى قُرْبَ حُدودِ الْيَمَنِ وَالسُّعُودِيَّةِ، يَوْمَ ٦ أُغُسْطُسَ.
وَقالَ الْجَيْشُ السُّعُودِيُّ إِنَّ تِلْكَ الْهَجَماتِ أَصابَتْ ١١ مَدَنِيًّا. وَكانَتْ هُدْنَةٌ فِي عامِ ٢٠٢٢ قَدْ أَوْقَفَتْ مُعْظَمَ الْقِتالِ الْكَبِيرِ فِي الْيَمَنِ.

Houthis Say They Targeted an Aramco Refinery in Jazan
Yemen’s Ansar Allah group announced on Sunday, August 9, that it had targeted an Aramco refinery in the Saudi city of Jazan with a drone.
Saudi Arabia’s Energy Ministry said that a fire occurred at a facility belonging to the refinery that same morning. It added that the fire was extinguished and that no one was injured.
The ministry did not say what caused the fire. This came after other attacks near the Yemen-Saudi Arabia border on August 6.
The Saudi military said that those attacks injured 11 civilians. A truce in 2022 had stopped most major fighting in Yemen.
