The global oil supply was disrupted by drone attacks on two Saudi Arabian oil plants on Saturday, as ensuing fires brought to a halt the production of 5.7 million barrels of crude oil per day.
The Iranian foreign ministry strongly rejected US officials’ allegations that Tehran was involved in the Saturday drone attacks against the Saudi oil installations.
Yemen’s Houthi Ansarullah movement says oil installations in Saudi Arabia remain among their targets and could be attacked at "any moment".
The Iraqi cabinet said that claims about its territory being used as a base for the attacks held no value, stressing that the country would never become a platform to attack other countries.
Yemen’s air force denys reports that Iran and even Iraq might have played a role in the attack.
Yemeni officials have dismissed claims that the country is incapable of carrying out on its own the kind of attacks that targeted two plants at the heart of Saudi Arabia's oil industry./
