By publicly claiming the supply is coming from Iran, they were goading pro-Saudi factions in Iraq. Considering ongoing Iran–Saudi proxy conflicts, it's a bit surprising that said factions have not been involved already. -- Those factions were rumoured to have not yet. And what do you know, Saudi monarch just expressed their support for Palestinian and condemned Israeli actions in Jerusalem. Hm. I thought Saudi's aspect in the recent Arab detente was mostly a charade.
