An Iranian drone strike hit a Central Intelligence Agency station Monday at the U.S. Embassy in Riyadh,Saudi A according to people familiar with the matter. No CIA personnel were wounded and there are no indications the attack deliberately targeted the CIA station rather than the broader embassy complex, the people said.
Saudi Arabia's government previously said the embassy had suffered minimal damage during a Monday drone attack, but didn't mention the CIA station being struck, which was first reported by The Washington Post.
