Saudi Arabia says operational activities halted at several energy sites

What Happened

Saudi Arabia halted operations at multiple energy sites after attacks on oil, gas, and electricity facilities in Riyadh, Eastern Province, and Yanbu. One security worker died; seven were injured. Oil production capacity decreased by 600,000 barrels daily. The attacks reportedly stem from Iran's response to US-Israeli military action beginning February 28. Oil prices fluctuated amid uncertainty over a proposed Iran-US ceasefire.
