Many southern energy facilities in Saudi Arabia stopped operating after being attacked, and Brent crude oil is approaching the $100 mark per barrel. Driven by the escalation of the Middle East conflict and the recovery in demand for oil purchases, the international benchmark oil price rose sharply last week, less than 1 dollar from the 100 yuan mark. Saudi Arabia's official news agency said the attack occurred on Tuesday, causing many injuries. The Houthis say they have once again attacked Saudi Arabia's Jizan oil refinery with a daily processing capacity of 400,000 barrels and various energy facilities serving the domestic market. Continued attacks on OPEC's biggest oil producer have heightened market concerns: crude oil supply may continue to be disrupted due to the Houthi attacks and the situation in Iran. Global crude oil inventories have declined rapidly, and prices of refined oil products such as diesel have soared sharply around the world. Since this year, Brent crude oil has risen by more than 60%, and the European diesel benchmark price is close to 200 US dollars per barrel.
