"The bombing of the Aramco refinery in Riyadh by the Air Force using a guided long-range aircraft,Sammad-2, is a successful and qualitative trial," Abdul Salam said in a tweet on his Twitter account.
On Wednesday, Yemeni forces attacked an Aramco oil refinery in Riyadh using an unmanned aerial vehicle.
Although Yemeni forces regularly attack positions inside Saudi Arabia in retaliation for the Saudi-led war on Yemen, the most recent operation was the first of its kind since the start of the conflict in March 2015.
