American intelligence shows that the attack on a major Saudi oil facility was launched from Iran, three people familiar with the intelligence told NBC News—an assessment that is likely to escalate tensions between Washington, DC and Tehran.
“This attack had a level of sophistication we have not seen before,” the Congressional source said. “You will not see Democrats pushing back on the idea that Iran was behind it.” Secretary of State Mike Pompeo tweeted Saturday that Iran “launched” what he called “an unprecedented attack on the world’s energy supply.”
A Saudi military spokesman says initial investigations show Iranian weapons were used in the attack, the AP reported.
