Saudi Arabia halts Petroline oil flow after drone strikes
Saudi Arabia has temporarily halted the East-West (Petroline) pipeline after it was targeted by several drone attacks from Iraq on September 10, 2026, resulting in injuries and material damage. Saudi authorities confirmed that the pipeline is one of the most critical oil transport routes, operating at its full capacity of up to 7 million barrels per day, and it supports the export of oil via the Red Sea while reducing reliance on the Strait of Hormuz, especially amid regional tensions. A precautionary suspension has been implemented to repair the damages and secure the facilities, with no specified timeline for resumption of operations, as investigations into the incident continue. Many Arab and international countries and organizations condemned the attack, considering it a violation of international law and a threat to regional security.
