Sources tell Reuters the Dhahran headquarters complex suffered extensive damage Tuesday night. Fire started on the ninth floor of the south wing and spread between the sixth and tenth. Top three floors, including the area with CEO Amin Nasser’s office, severely damaged—ceiling caved in, windows and doors blown out. Some functions shifted to other offices. Employees told to work from home in places. Energy ministry called it a limited fire with no injuries. Coalition had struck the Yemen Petroleum Company’s al-Sabaha fuel station in Sanaa earlier after warning civilians to leave. Houthis had specifically threatened Aramco headquarters in Dhahran and a Riyadh refinery in response. Riyadh airport still shut from earlier strikes that killed 14. Fighting continues on both sides.
