Yemen rebels threaten new attacks on Saudi oil sites

Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi rebels, who claimed responsibility for devastating weekend attacks on Saudi oil facilities, threaten to carry out more strikes and urge foreigners to stay away.

“We assure the Saudi regime that our long hand can reach any place we want at any time we choose,” Houthi military spokesman Brigadier Yahya Saree says in a statement.

Saree says the weekend attacks were carried out with a new type of drone.

“We warn companies and foreigners not to stay in the plants that we have targeted because they are still within our reach and could be targeted again,” he says.
