U.S. Secretary of State Michael Pompeo blamed Iran for a series of brazen attacks on a massive Saudi Aramco oil facility, saying there was no evidence the drones originated in Yemen as Tehran-backed rebels there claimed.
Iran denied responsibility for the raids Saturday, which forced Saudi Arabia to slash its daily oil output in half.
