An attack on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh on Saturday resulted in 12 fatalities and 309 injuries, according to Saudi Arabia's General Authority of Civil Aviation. The assault, which struck passenger facilities, led to the temporary suspension of airport operations. While no group immediately claimed responsibility, the incident follows previous attacks on the airport by Iran-backed Houthi forces in Yemen. The US is reportedly considering joining Saudi strikes against the Houthis.
