RIYADH (The Thursday Times) — Yemen ke Houthiyon ne Jumeraat ko kaha ke unhon ne Saudi Arab ki East-West tel pipeline ke ek pumping station aur Bahira-e-Ahmar ke sahili shehar Yanbu mein tel ki ek tansib par hamla kiya hai. Yeh mamlakat ke tawanai ke nizam par daawa kiye gaye hamlon ke silsile ki taaza kari hai.
Group ke fauji tarjuman ne kaha ke un ki forces ne do karrawaiyan kin; pehli ka hadaf pipeline ka pumping station number 7 aur doosri ka Yanbu ki tansib thi. Unhon ne istemal hone wale hathiyaron ya kisi nuqsan ki tafseel nahin batayi. Saudi Arab ne fori taur par is daawe ki tasdeeq nahin ki, aur is baare mein koi azad ittila samne nahin aayi ke agar kisi cheez ko nishana banaya gaya to woh kya thi.
Jumeraat ko is se pehle Saudi qiyadat wale ittehad ne kaha tha ke us ne raat ke dauran Mashriqi Subay ke upar ek drone aur din mein Riyadh ke ilaqay ke upar doosra drone rok kar tabah kar diya. Ittehad ke tarjuman Major General Turki al-Maliki ne do mukhtasar bayanat mein mazeed tafseel nahin di.
Hormuz se bach kar nikalne ka raasta
1,200 kilometer taweel yeh pipeline Jazeera Numa Arab ke aar paar mashriq ke tel ke maidanon se Bahira-e-Ahmar par waqe Yanbu tak jaati hai. Iran ke saath jang ke baais Aabnaye Hormuz se tankeron ki aamad o raft rukne ke baad se Riyadh ise rozana taqreeban 40 lakh barrel khaam tel Bahira-e-Ahmar ke sahil tak pohanchane ke liye istemal kar raha hai, jo aalmi rasad ka taqreeban 4 feesad hai.
Isi wajah se yeh nishane par hai. Sarkari media ke mutabiq Peer ko Saudi Wazarat-e-Tawanai ke ek ohdedar ne kaha ke Madina ke ilaqay mein pipeline ko nishana banaya gaya jis se ek “mehdood aag” lagi jise bujha diya gaya; na koi jaani nuqsan hua aur na hi operations mutasir huay. September mein drone hamlon ke baad yeh line kai din band rahi thi, jin ke baare mein Saudi Arab ne kaha tha ke woh Iraq se kiye gaye thay.
Budh ko Houthiyon ne kaha tha ke unhon ne Yanbu mein ek pumping station ko nishana banaya, aur saath hi Saudi ilzamaat ki tardeed ki ke unhon ne Makkah ki taraf drone bheje. Usi roz ittehad ne kaha tha ke us ne Riyadh ki jaanib daaghe gaye cruise missile aur Makkah aur mamlakat ke junoob ki taraf bheje gaye drone maar giraye.
In hamlon ki baray paimane par muzammat hui hai. Group of Seven ke wuzra-e-kharja ne is hafte in ki “sakht tareen alfaz” mein muzammat ki aur Iran se kaha ke woh is group ko aslaha dena band kare, jabke Europi ohdedaron ne Jumeraat ko bataya ke Saudi Arab European Union par Houthiyon ko dehshatgard tanzeem qarar dene ke liye dabao daal raha hai. Pakistan ki fauj keh chuki hai ke Saudi Arab ki salamati ke liye us ka azm naqabil-e-samjhauta hai.
