Saudi Arabia says it closed vital East-West Pipeline after attack Read More » On Thursday, drones launched from Iraq hit the Saudi East-West oil pipeline in the Riyadh and Medina regions, according to Saudi authorities.  The pipeline, a vital artery that enables the kingdom to send oil to its western coast instead of via the Strait of Hormuz, was shut down as a precaution. Saudi authorities later traced the launch site to Maysan province in southeast Iraq near the Iranian border, Al Jazeera reported.  The suspected site was in the border district of al-Tayeb near the Sheeb crossing, east of Amara, and comprised the Duwayrij River and Tayeb Island.  Al Jazeera said the distances involved, around 1,100km from Medina and 800km from Riyadh, suggested the attack probably involved “not tactical drones, but long-range, advanced ones”. According to Al Jazeera, Baghdad has asked Saudi Arabia not to retaliate against Iraq. Iraq steps up security Iraq’s security forces said they had found and confiscated a drone-launching platform allegedly used in the attack on Saudi Arabia’s East-West oil pipeline.  (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Iraq’s Security Media Cell head, Lieutenant General Saad Maan, said that a task force of security and intelligence forces had located the equipment used to launch the rockets.  Trump says Houthis asked US not to intervene in Yemen Read More » According to Iraq's state-run Iraqi News Agency, forensic and technical teams were still looking into the platform and working to identify who was responsible.  Iraq’s commander-in-chief approved an Iranian request to join the investigation and review its findings, Maan said.  Baghdad, he said, was also in direct touch with the Saudi authorities to share intelligence. “Iraq adopts the principle of ‘preventive sovereignty’, which means not only preventing attacks on our territory, but also not allowing our land to be a launching pad against any other country, or for Iraq to be part of a proxy war,” Maan told INA. Iraqi authorities temporarily closed several border crossings with Iran, including Shalamcheh, Chazabeh and Mandali, for security inspections after the attack, before partially reopening them for humanitarian traffic. The developments come as Iraq is pressed to prevent its territory from being used in attacks linked to the wider regional confrontation.
