Saudi Arabia said Monday it had disrupted an attack on an offshore oil field.
A government statement carried by the official SPA news agency said three boats bearing “white and red flags” entered Saudi territorial waters on Friday and raced toward the Marjan oil field.
The statement said Saudi naval forces fired warning shots and captured one of the boats, while the two others had escaped.
It said the captured boat “was loaded with weapons for a subversive purpose.”
The statement, however, did not say who was behind the attack. Read more here.
