India can be affected!
The impact of drone strikes in Saudi Arabia can be seen on India's third largest oil importing country in the world. Although the Indian government is fully prepared to deal with this crisis.

In the last 2018-19 financial year, Saudi Arabia has sold 4.033 million tonnes of crude oil to India, while India has supplied 20.73 lakh tonnes of oil.
