The Houthis have claimed responsibility for attacks on the King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, resulting in at least 13 deaths. The attacks occurred over two days, Saturday and Sunday. The group stated they targeted the airport as part of their ongoing conflict with Saudi Arabia.
The attacks involved explosive devices and gunfire, according to local reports. Security forces responded swiftly, neutralizing the threat. The Saudi government has not yet commented on the incident. The airport remains operational but under heightened security.
The conflict between the Houthis and Saudi Arabia has escalated in recent months. The Houthis, a Yemen-based group, have been engaged in a prolonged war with Saudi Arabia and its allies since 2015. The attacks on Riyadh mark a new level of escalation, with the group targeting a major Saudi city. The incident highlights the ongoing instability in the region and the risks of cross-border conflict.
