(Worthy News) – Saudi King Salman said Tuesday his country is capable of defending itself against the “cowardly attacks” that knocked out half of its oil production, but called on the international community to “clearly confront” the perpetrators.
The Saudi government reiterated its accusation that Iranian weapons were used in the attack, but offered no evidence of its claim.
