Riyadh’s international airport was struck multiple times over the weekend. The Houthis claimed responsibility for the attacks and warned airlines against flying to Saudi airports, calling them “potential targets.”

Riyadh’s King Khalid International Airport has been attacked again, two regional officials told the Associated Press on Saturday. One said the airport was evacuated, and the other said air traffic had stopped, speaking anonymously. A Riyadh resident told AP he heard at least two loud explosions. The airport told passengers to check their flight status with airlines before traveling. A number of flights are already showing as cancelled for today. AP says the airport has been hit repeatedly in the week since a Saudi-led military offensive began against the Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen. The Houthis claimed earlier attacks, including Wednesday’s, which killed a Sudanese national and wounded eight. The Saudi civil aviation authority said Wednesday that attacks that week on the Riyadh and Abha airports killed three people and wounded 36. Source:
