Breaking News: Iranian Missiles Hit Riyadh Refinery and Qatar’s Ras Laffan in Widening Retaliation

The Middle East war has entered its 20th day and escalated into a dangerous phase focused on energy infrastructure. Iran, retaliating after attacks on its major gas fields, has launched strikes on key energy sites across the Gulf, including Qatar’s Ras Laffan gas facility and a major refinery in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The Riyadh strike, near the strategic Prince Sultan Airbase, disrupted fuel supplies linked to US military operations, intensifying geopolitical tensions. Meanwhile, reports of unidentified drones over a military base in Washington have heightened security concerns in the United States, leading to emergency discussions at the highest level. Amid rising tensions, US Vice President JD Vance indicated that President Donald Trump is not in favor of prolonging the conflict. However, Iran’s continued retaliation and threats of further strikes have increased global anxiety. The situation has also triggered a sharp rise in crude oil prices, crossing $110 per barrel, signaling a potential global economic crisis with rising inflation and supply disruptions worldwide.
