The claim
A viral video shows Iran attacking an oil refinery in Saudi Arabia as retaliation following recent US–Israel strikes.
Original review summary
The video is from July 2024 and shows Israeli airstrikes on Yemen’s Hodeidah, not an Iranian attack on a Saudi oil facility. The review says the footage predates the February 2026 escalation and was misattributed to the current conflict.[S1]
