Saudi Aramco Helicopter Crash at World's Key Oil Hub Kills 14

A Saudi Aramco helicopter crashed Sunday at Ras Tanura, on the eastern coast near the Strait of Hormuz, killing all 14 aboard. The facility hosts one of the world's largest crude export terminals and a major refinery—infrastructure integral to global energy supply. The cause remains unknown. The incident underscores operational vulnerability at a strategically critical node where roughly a fifth of seaborne oil transits.
