The IRGC issued a warning about the evacuation of workers and residents near four energy facilities in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE following today's Israeli strike on the Asaluyeh gas processing plant in southern Iran.
The evacuation orders includes these facilities.
•The Samref oil refinery in Saudi Arabia.
• The Al Hasan gas field in the UAE.
• The Jubail petrochemical complex in Saudi Arabia.
• The Mesaieed Petrochemical Holding Company (MPHC) petrochemical complex in Qatar.
"A dangerous and irresponsible step in the context of the current military escalation in the region."
"Striking energy infrastructure poses a threat to global energy security, as well as to the people of the region and the environment."
-Qatar's Foreign Ministry spokesman Majed Al-Ansari regarding Israel’s latest strikes.
Saudi Aramco just lost 500,000 barrels per day
Their biggest refinery is offline
And
Hormuz mined and paralyzed ❌
Oman bypass hubs struck ❌
Bab al-Mandab Houthis circling ❌
Look at who's not getting their oil today:
🇨🇳 China: 1.75mb/day from Aramco blocked
🇯🇵 Japan: 960k bpd blocked
🇰🇷 S Korea: 950k bpd blocked
🇮🇳 India: 850k bpd blocked
The East-West pipeline is running hard but it's not enough.
Storage is filling.
Fields are shutting in.
Now the refinery is burning.
Aramco called this "catastrophic"
They weren't exaggerating.🛢️🔥

Another Indian oil‑laden vessel has crossed the Strait of Hormuz after paying for the oil in Chinese yuan to the producing country, and the IRGC allowed it safe passage.
@gt65dusk@OMGTheMess There is literally zero chance any strategic government stockpiles of fuel are going to be released to the public. Pointless including them
