Saudi Arabia, a leading exporter of crude oil, warned on Monday that attacks by Yemeni rebels on the kingdom's oil facilities pose an "imminent threat" to global supplies, the French News Agency reported.
Saudi Arabia "bears no responsibility" for shortages in oil supplies in connection with Iranian-backed Houthi attacks, the country's foreign minister said in a statement. These cross-border attacks are "a direct threat to the security of oil supplies in these extremely critical conditions witnessed by global energy markets," he added.
