The Washington Post: Iranian drone strikes CIA station in Saudi Arabia

An Iranian drone has struck a CIA facility in Saudi Arabia, causing minimal damage, The Washington Post reported, citing two officials familiar with the matter.

"The US and Saudi governments confirmed that two drones struck the US embassy compound in Riyadh, but did not disclose whether the attack also hit the US spy center. The CIA declined to comment," the Washington Post further said.

According to a State Department statement to the Washington Post, the attack destroyed part of the embassy's roof, causing structural damage, while personnel remain in shelters.

Regarding the CIA station, the extent of the damage is not clear, and there are no indications that any intelligence personnel were injured. Former CIA officers who worked in the area say the loss of the station is "disruptive," but the situation can be resolved.
