MBS, THE HOUSE OF SAUD, & THE COUNTRY OF SAUDI ARABIA IS FINISHED. IN LESS THAN A WEEK, THE HOUTHIS HAVE HIT THE PIPELINE AGAIN, OIL STABILIZATION PLANTS, PORTS, REFINERIES, AND NOW THE OIL FIELDS. IT WILL TAKE SAUDI ARABIA AT LEAST A DECADE TO RETURN TO PRE-WAR LEVELS OF PRODUCTION.
FOR THE LIFE IS OF ME, I CAN’T UNDERSTAND MBS’S STRATEGY OR LINE OF THINKING. THE LONGER HE WAITS TO CUT A DEAL, THE MORE ASSETS, LAND, AND INFRASTRUCTURE HE LOSSES. IT’S BETTER TO LOSE A WAR THAN HIS ENTIRE COUNTRY AND ECONOMIC ENGINE.
Ansar Allah has shifted to directly targeting Saudi oil fields, bombing and setting them ablaze!
As we explained previously, any Saudi attempt to repair the East-West pipeline after the Yemeni strikes will end with its destruction once again, because Ansar Allah directly informed Saudi Arabia that they will not allow the pipeline to be repaired, and that they will bomb its facilities anew every time Aramco tries to restart it. And this is exactly what happened just a few days ago.
But more dangerous than that, Ansar Allah did not merely threaten to target oil refineries, storage depots, and pumping stations—they threatened to strike the main oil fields themselves in the Eastern Province, and to destroy the facilities that underpin Saudi Arabia's oil production capacity.
And now, this is exactly what's happening!
These are satellite images of Saudi Arabia's Khurais oil field, which is burning after intense bombardment launched by Ansar Allah from Yemen.
To grasp the scale of this strike, Khurais is one of Saudi Arabia's largest oil fields, with a production capacity of around 1.45 million barrels per day—equivalent to about 1.5% of global oil demand—and it is one of the key pillars of Aramco's oil production.
We are not talking here about targeting an oil depot or an oil export terminal, but about striking one of the most vital sources of crude oil production in Saudi Arabia itself.
And this is precisely what makes targeting Khurais so gravely dangerous, because destroying its main production facilities could deprive Saudi Arabia of a massive portion of its oil extraction capacity, and not just its ability to transport or export it.
The strike targets the very heart of Saudi Arabia's oil industry, and any prolonged halt in production from a field of this size will have enormous economic repercussions for Saudi Arabia and global oil markets.
