Saudi Arabia Shoots Down Over Thirty Drones in Eastern Region
The Saudi Defense Ministry disclosed the interceptions through a series of posts published on X, the US-owned social media platform, confirming the scale of the assault on one of the world's most critical energy corridors.
The surge in strikes against Saudi territory is part of a broader regional conflagration ignited on February 28, when US and Israeli forces launched coordinated military operations against Iran. Since then, Tehran has answered with successive drone and missile barrages directed at both Israel and Gulf states that host US military installations — dramatically widening the conflict's geographic footprint.
Monday's drone barrage against the Eastern Region — home to a significant share of Saudi Arabia's vast oil infrastructure — signals a dangerous new front in hostilities that show no signs of abating.
