也门胡塞武装11月12日称袭击沙特东西输油管道泵站与延布石油设施:沙特未回应,管道日输约400万桶原油

也门消息,与伊朗结盟的也门胡塞武装 11 月 12 日周四说,该组织袭击了沙特阿拉伯东西输油管道上的一座泵站,以及红海沿岸城市延布的一处石油设施。据路透社报道,这发生在沙特与该组织敌对行动急剧升级之际。沙特阿拉伯未立即回应置评请求,胡塞武装没有说明袭击的具体日期。
路透社说,胡塞武装一直在向沙特的机场、港口与石油设施发射弹道导弹和无人机,使美国的盟友沙特成为一场战争的压力点;这场战争始于今年 2 月美国与以色列袭击伊朗。
中东冲突扰乱了经霍尔木兹海峡的石油运输后,利雅得已改道经东西输油管道向延布输送原油,规模约为每日 400 万桶,相当于全球供应量的约 4%。路透社说,这条管道使身为全球最大石油出口国的沙特,免受霍尔木兹海峡战时关闭对其邻国出口造成的严重冲击。
另外,胡塞武装军方发言人周四否认该组织曾以麦加为目标。沙特民防部门称,两枚弹道导弹于周三被拦截摧毁,碎片落在麦加地区,包括萨布哈村。胡塞武装一再否认以伊斯兰教两大圣城麦加与麦地那为目标,并驳斥沙特领导的联盟此前关于其向两城发射无人机的指控。
Yemen's Houthis Say on November 12 They Attacked a Pumping Station on Saudi Arabia's East-West Oil Pipeline and a Facility in Yanbu: Riyadh Has Not Responded, and the Pipeline Carries About 4 Million Barrels a Day
Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthis said on Thursday, November 12, that they had attacked a pumping station on Saudi Arabia's East-West oil pipeline and an oil facility in Yanbu on its Red Sea coast, amid a sharp escalation in hostilities between the kingdom and the group, Reuters reported. Saudi Arabia did not immediately respond to a request for comment, and the Houthis did not specify which day they had carried out the attacks.
The group has been firing ballistic missiles and drones at Saudi airports, ports and oil installations, turning United States ally Saudi Arabia into a pressure point in a war that began with the United States and Israel attacking Iran in February, Reuters said.
With the conflict in the Middle East disrupting oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz, Riyadh has rerouted about 4 million barrels per day of crude via the East-West Pipeline to Yanbu, equivalent to about 4 percent of global supply. The pipeline has spared Saudi Arabia, the world's biggest exporter, from the brunt of the impact of the wartime shutdown of the Strait of Hormuz that has crippled exports from its neighbours, Reuters said.
Separately, the Houthi military spokesperson on Thursday denied that the group had targeted Mecca with two ballistic missiles that Saudi Arabia's civil defence said had been intercepted and destroyed on Wednesday, with debris falling in the Mecca region, including in Sabuhah village. The Houthis have repeatedly denied targeting Mecca and Medina, Islam's two holiest cities, rejecting previous Saudi-led coalition accusations that they had launched drones towards the cities.
