Saudi Arabia's State Minister for Foreign Affairs Adel al-Jubeir on Saturday held Iran responsible for the attack on Saudi Aramco oil facilities in September.

Speaking at the annual Manama conference, Jubeir added that the Kingdom has asked the United Nations to provide experts to inspect the issue.

"We have asked the international community and the United Nations to participate, through inspectors, in the investigation of the Abqaiq and Khurais attacks," he said, adding that the country also asked other friendly countries to participate.

"What is quite clear that the missiles and drones that were used in the attacks were made in Iran, and that the attack occurred from the north and not from the south."
