Saudi Arabia confirmed minor damage to Riyadh Aramco building after Houthi attack on 8 November

Saudi Arabia's Energy Ministry has confirmed that a Saudi Aramco building in Riyadh took minor damage after a Houthi missile attack on 8 November.

CNN reports that, according to the ministry, the building is in the city's King Abdullah Financial District and was damaged by fallen debris.

France 24 reports that the ministry described the incident as an "attempted attack" on an administrative building belonging to Saudi Aramco. France 24 adds that two witnesses confirmed seeing damage.

Earlier entries on this blog recorded only Houthi claims of attacks on Aramco. This is an official Saudi confirmation that an Aramco building in Riyadh was hit on 8 November. It is not clear whether it is the same building as in the Houthi claim about 12 November reported earlier.
