Satellite imagery from earlier today appears to show possible signs of damage at the Aramco headquarters in 🇸🇦 Dhahran, with clear discoloration visible surrounding the Tower Administration building and the National Commercial Bank building, with ash (POSS?) visible on parts of the roof.
Despite this, the rest of the complex appears to be relatively unaffected and unharmed by the recent strikes, which appear to have been carried out using a ballistic or cruise missile, given the possible extent of the damage as well as local interception reports.
Better quality imagery is required to make a concrete assessment of the damage, though it does appear that both buildings have suffered superficial and possibly structural damage.
Quoted tweet from @tzalivia:
A source within the 🇸🇦 Royal Saudi Air Defense Forces said that a smaller munition may have impacted the headquarters of Aramco; a damage assessment is now underway by the civil defense authorities.
Despite the impact, the damage appears to be superficial and not structural, though the building has been evacuated as a precaution. No casualties have been reported as of writing, though workers at the site were told to work remotely tomorrow.
The ballistic missiles used by the 🇾🇪 Houthis against targets in 🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia are known to have smaller warheads to maximize their effective operational range; this is likely the reason for why the damage is not extreme.
