According to CNBC, Saudi officials said an administrative building belonging to Saudi Aramco was targeted overnight in Dhahran, causing a fire but no injuries, as Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia intensified. The Saudi Arabian Ministry of Energy said airport attacks in Riyadh over the past week caused multiple fatalities, flight cancellations and property damage, and that King Khalid International Airport remains closed until Saturday.

Ali Ozmaei, chief of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, said Tehran is "counting the moments" until it can sink American warships and said U.S. forces should approach the Strait of Hormuz if they want to test Iran's response. U.S. Central Command rejected Iranian claims that the strait is under Iran's control and said U.S. forces and regional partners helped move more than 19 million barrels of crude oil through the waterway just a day earlier.
