# Houthi strike damages Aramco administrative building in Dhahran

Date: 2026

A Houthi strike on 13 October 2026 caused a limited fire in an administrative building at an Aramco compound in Dhahran, eastern Saudi Arabia, according to the Saudi Ministry of Energy. Saudi authorities reported no injuries. The attack was part of a renewed [Houthi](/people/abdul-malik-al-houthi) missile and drone campaign against Saudi airports and energy infrastructure, which the Houthis present as retaliation for Saudi support of Yemeni government forces.
