They also have not turned a blind eye to Saudi troop buildups in either Al-Jawf or Marib, as well as in Lahij where they were targeted with a large number of drones,

[0:19](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Brd0BK4MaWZA/en/yemen-s-reported-attacks-on-riyadh-and-abqaiq-and-saudi-investment?t=19) ballistic missiles, and cruise missiles as Brigadier General Yahya Saree explained.

[0:23](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Brd0BK4MaWZA/en/yemen-s-reported-attacks-on-riyadh-and-abqaiq-and-saudi-investment?t=23) And I think what is new about these latest operations is the targeting of Aramco's Riyadh company, that is, the company's financial center which is in the heart of the capital, or in Riyadh's commercial and financial district,

[0:37](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Brd0BK4MaWZA/en/yemen-s-reported-attacks-on-riyadh-and-abqaiq-and-saudi-investment?t=37) and this is certainly the beginning of a new phase not only targeting oil fields, but also targeting Aramco's financial facilities And Riyadh will be the starting point.

[0:48](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Brd0BK4MaWZA/en/yemen-s-reported-attacks-on-riyadh-and-abqaiq-and-saudi-investment?t=48) We know that Saudi Arabia can always conceal attacks targeting oil regions in the desert and prevent any filming, But the images may have spread about that center and that large building, some of whose floors were targeted.

[1:04](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Brd0BK4MaWZA/en/yemen-s-reported-attacks-on-riyadh-and-abqaiq-and-saudi-investment?t=64) This alone proves and sends a clear signal that as long as the Yemeni army has the ability to target a single building and target several floors, that means all its targets whether at Aramco in Riyadh, or in Abqaiq or Khurais,

[1:19](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Brd0BK4MaWZA/en/yemen-s-reported-attacks-on-riyadh-and-abqaiq-and-saudi-investment?t=79) or anywhere in Yanbu and elsewhere, as well as military bases such as Khamis Mushait Base and, uh…

[1:28](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Brd0BK4MaWZA/en/yemen-s-reported-attacks-on-riyadh-and-abqaiq-and-saudi-investment?t=88) Taif Base and, yes, Taif Base. Today's attack on Aramco's financial center in the heart of Riyadh proves this.

[1:34](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Brd0BK4MaWZA/en/yemen-s-reported-attacks-on-riyadh-and-abqaiq-and-saudi-investment?t=94) It proves that the Yemeni army is precise in its targeting operations and precise in its missile launches.

[1:41](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Brd0BK4MaWZA/en/yemen-s-reported-attacks-on-riyadh-and-abqaiq-and-saudi-investment?t=101) It also proves that Saudi Arabia, despite all these raids, which have exceeded three thousand, has in fact been unable to stop these operations by the Yemeni army.

[1:50](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Brd0BK4MaWZA/en/yemen-s-reported-attacks-on-riyadh-and-abqaiq-and-saudi-investment?t=110) Brigadier General Yahya Saree has vowed to carry out larger- scale and more sophisticated operations…

[1:54](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Brd0BK4MaWZA/en/yemen-s-reported-attacks-on-riyadh-and-abqaiq-and-saudi-investment?t=114) And I think the latest attack on the financial center in Riyadh will also affect all the investors based in Riyadh or any investor trying to bring their money and invest in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

[2:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Brd0BK4MaWZA/en/yemen-s-reported-attacks-on-riyadh-and-abqaiq-and-saudi-investment?t=131) We know that— I think these latest attacks are also a clear message that what is called Mohammed bin Salman's Vision 2030 I mean, it should—will actually go up in smoke.

[2:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Brd0BK4MaWZA/en/yemen-s-reported-attacks-on-riyadh-and-abqaiq-and-saudi-investment?t=146) Because one of Saudi Arabia's plans was, for example, where were the headquarters of most of the companies based in Saudi Arabia?

[2:35](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Brd0BK4MaWZA/en/yemen-s-reported-attacks-on-riyadh-and-abqaiq-and-saudi-investment?t=155) In Dubai or Abu Dhabi, but Mohammed bin Salman tried to pressure all those companies and moved many of them to Riyadh.

[2:43](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Brd0BK4MaWZA/en/yemen-s-reported-attacks-on-riyadh-and-abqaiq-and-saudi-investment?t=163) He required any company that operates or does business in Saudi Arabia to have its headquarters in one of the Saudi cities, and I think this latest attack on the financial center could, I mean, put an end to this plan, and Saudi Arabia now can't ship or export its oil,

[3:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Brd0BK4MaWZA/en/yemen-s-reported-attacks-on-riyadh-and-abqaiq-and-saudi-investment?t=185) And I think the closure of its airports will continue, and Yemen may also begin a new phase by targeting new airports, like Qassim Airport or the one in Buraidah.
