#UPDATE
1)
Saudi Arabia and U.S. assessments indicate there is a “very high probability” that low altitude cruise missiles, launched from an Iranian base near the Iraq border, were used in this weekend’s attack targeting Saudi oil facilities.
2)
Saudi Cabinet:
This aggression is an extension of previous attacks on Aramco with #Iran-made weapons. Int'l community should take tougher stance.
King Salman of Saudi Arabia: KSA will defend its territory and facilities no matter where these attacks come from
3)
Tehran-backed Houthi spox:
The near future defensive operations will be harsher and more painful if the aggression and siege continue.
4)
#Iran's regime speaking through the Houthis:
"We recognize no red lines & will target all countries involved in the Yemen war."

My initial take:
After Khamenei indicated no talks with the U.S. whatsoever, the IRGC is raising the stakes to save face & boost low internal moral.
#UPDATE
5)
-Saudi Arabia close to restoring 70 percent of the 5.7 million bpd oil output loss: reports
-Saudi oil output to be fully back online in 2-3 weeks: official
