Saudi Arabia says its East-West oil pipeline is hit by drones launched from Iraq. The announcement is accompanied by claims about responsibility for the attack, according to reporting from Al Jazeera and Sun Online (Maldives).
Baghdad responds by condemning the attack and ordering an investigation. Iraq’s government says Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi instructs officials to identify those behind the incident and determine the circumstances of the strike. The two outlets frame the episode as an Iraq–Saudi dispute over attribution and accountability, with Saudi pointing to cross-border drone launches while Iraqi authorities focus on investigating who is responsible.
