The US has released new satellite images supporting its accusation Iran was behind the attacks on crucial Saudi Arabian oil facilities over the weekend.

The Trump administration released satellite photographs of what officials said were at least 17 points of impact at various Saudi energy facilities, including damage at the heart of the kingdom’s crucial oil processing plant at Abqaiq.

This satellite overview image shows damage to oil/gas infrastructure from weekend drone attacks at Khurais oilfield.Saturday’s attack on Saudi Arabia was the most damaging blow on the Middle Eastern kingdom in more than four years of civil war in Yemen.cause a nightmare situation for AustraliaAbqaiq is the world’s biggest crude-stabilisation facility, refining some seven million barrels a day. Khurais produces about 1.5 million barrels of crude a day.

“Yemeni people are exercising their legitimate right of defence,” he told a joint news conference with his Russian and Turkish counterparts at a meeting in Ankara. Remember when Iran shot down a drone, saying knowingly that it was in their “airspace” when, in fact, it was nowhere close. They stuck strongly to that story knowing that it was a very big lie. Now they say that they had nothing to do with the attack on Saudi Arabia. We’ll see?Mr Trump has since told reporters he thinks Iran was the likely culprit, but he wants to be sure and hopes to avoid war.

Julie Bishop offers to help secure release of Australians detained in Iran'I have a longstanding and constructive relationship with Iranian Foreign Minister (Javad) Zarif and I met with President (Hassan) Rouhani during my visit to Tehran,' Ms Bishop said. Are you suggesting that Payne has no idea, if you are I agree. If she's having such a relationship with JZ, she should know that when it comes to hostage-taking, JZ and Rouhani are just clowns and the supreme freaking leader has a final say!! Whatever works.

Julie Bishop offers to negotiate release of Australians detained in Iran | Sky News AustraliaFormer foreign minister Julie Bishop has offered to help the government secure the release of three Australians jailed in Iran. \n\nMelbourne woman Kylie Moore-Gilbert is being held in an Iranian prison after being arrested more than a year ago. \n\nShe is joined by travel-blogging couple Jolie King and Mark Firkin who were detained in Tehran nearly three months ago for allegedly flying a drone near a military base. \n\nMs Bishop said she had a long-standing relationship with Iran's foreign minister and was happy to help if asked. \n\nImage: News Corp Australia I doubt Iran will release. They were taken to be human shields for what is coming alongside citizens of the UK and US. Why is no one negotiating for Julian Assange to be released? He has served his term and is now being held indefinitely.... Wonder how this makes the current foreign affairs minister feel? Inadequate?
