BREAKING: Just days after Saudi Arabia signed a new defense pact with Pakistan and Turkey, two major Saudi Aramco energy sites have been reportedly hit โ a fire at the Berri Gas Plant near Jubail on the Gulf coast and a separate blaze at an Aramco facility at the Jazan refinery on the Red Sea coast, per satellite data and Saudi officials.
NASA FIRMS detected an estimated 125 MW fire radiative power at Berri, while Saudi authorities said Aramco crews extinguished the Jazan fire with no injuries reported. The cause and extent of damage remain unclear, with no confirmed attribution for either incident.
The stakes are enormous. Jubail supplies approximately 8% of global petrochemical production and contributes more than 7% of Saudi Arabia's GDP, hosting major operations involving Saudi Aramco, SABIC, ExxonMobil, Dow Chemical, and Chevron Phillips.
The timing is critical. The attacks come just days after Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Turkey signed a NATO-style defense pact in Jeddah. The agreement, which features a collective defense clause, was dismissed by Iran as a "paper agreement" that would not bring security to Riyadh. The strikes may be a test of that new alliance โ and a warning from Tehran that no paper pact will protect Saudi energy infrastructure. Saudi authorities have not confirmed the cause of either fire. The region remains on high alert.

WHAT DID HE SELL? HOW COMPROMISED ARE OUR NATIONAL DEFENCE SECRETS?
In one of the most serious recent security breaches involving a serving Indian military officer Delhi Police arrests an IAF Wing Commander in a suspected Pakistan-linked espionage network.
The officer, arrested by the Special Cell on May 31, is accused of leaking classified defence information and confidential documents under the Official Secrets Act.
Sources say he was honey-trapped by a woman on social media, who allegedly extracted information on military movements, troop deployments, photographs, videos and other sensitive data through video calls and digital communication.
Even more alarming: police reportedly found a suspicious spyware-like app on the phone of another officer, capable of accessing data, tracking location and potentially intercepting communications.
Sources say the woman was allegedly acting for Pakistan-based handlers.
Air Force Intelligence had reportedly grown suspicious of the officer and placed him under surveillance.
