Saudi Arabia is facing mounting pressure as Houthi missile attacks threaten its capital, critical oil infrastructure and economic ambitions. Multiple explosions were heard in Riyadh after Saudi air defences intercepted a ballistic missile launched towards the capital. The latest escalation comes after the kingdom's strategic East-West oil pipeline was targeted in the Medina region, triggering a limited fire. The pipeline is particularly significant amid the ongoing war with Iran, as it allows Saudi Arabia to transport crude oil to the Red Sea while bypassing the Strait of Hormuz. Any disruption could threaten one of the world's most important alternative energy export routes. Gursshheen Gahllen brings you the latest on Firstpost Live.
