The gas pipeline could transport an additional 1.2M barrels/day within 8 weeks, potentially rising to 3M with further investment. The announcement comes as Houthi strikes have been ravaging Saudi aviation infrastructure… The Houthis have also targeted Saudi oil infrastructure, and a September drone strike (from Iraqi territory) temporarily disrupted the East-West pipeline itself.

Evidence of its contribution to stopping attacks is harder to find. Launched in March through Tawakkalna, it lets residents report drones and missiles; the Defence Ministry says reporting takes roughly 30–35 seconds and reaches command centres directly. Civilian sightings could help locate low-flying threats, provided defenders can verify and act on them in time. But the published timing leaves crucial questions unanswered: how long from first sighting to interception or a warning to civilians⁉️ I found no Saudi results answering that. An award for digital service gives airport passengers little assurance. 🇧🇷 Post-match energy in Brazil: Flamengo supporters walking out singing anti-Lula chants at full volume. “LULA GO TO HELL.” 😂😂 Writer: Samuel Trump LIVE: Trump’s ‘Lockdown’ Announcement Leaves America in Shock Map Shows Donald Trump’s Approval Rating in Each State on Columbus Day ‘SHAMEFUL’: Haass SLAMS Trump for ‘doing the bidding’ of Putin and blaming Zelensky for war Global Security and Intelligence News Review Posts – WorldWebTimes.com
