Saudi Arabia's oil pipeline bypassing Hormuz damaged in Iranian attack: Reuters
Iran’s IRGC said it struck several targets, and Reuters reported flows through the pipeline are expected to be affected while damage is assessed.
- On Wednesday, an Iranian attack damaged Saudi Arabia's East-West oil pipeline, the kingdom's only current outlet for crude exports, according to an industry source told Reuters.
- The pipeline was diverting around 7 million barrels per day to the Red Sea port of Yanbu after Iran effectively shuttered the Strait of Hormuz, trapping huge volumes of oil.
- Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said on Wednesday it hit regional targets with missiles and drones, including oil facilities of American companies in Yanbu.
- President Donald Trump said on Wednesday the United States will work to retrieve Iran's enriched uranium, claiming "we are, and will be, talking Tariff and Sanctions relief" with the country.
- Diplomatic efforts continue as talks are planned for Friday in Pakistan, with Vice President Vance leading the United States delegation after Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei instructed negotiators on Monday to move towards a deal.
