The chief executive of Saudi Arabia’s state oil firm said that attacks by Yemen’s Houthi rebels had no real effect on the oil giant’s production, AFP reports.

Strikes by the Iran-backed group had “no material impact on our capabilities”, Aramco president and CEO Amin H. Nasser said during a call with reporters, adding that they included Houthi attacks in July which targeted the company’s operations on the Red Sea coast and elsewhere.
