Saudi Aramco needed about 40 minutes to put out the fire caused by a missile strike on a fuel depot in the Red Sea city of Jeddah, with evidence pointing to a sophisticated attack on Saudi Arabia’s energy infrastructure.
No one was hurt in Monday’s explosion or blaze, and supplies from the facility in the kingdom’s second-biggest city were not interrupted, an Aramco official said Tuesday, asking not to be identified due to company policy.
