Houthis claim attack on Riyadh airport as airlines suspend flights to Saudi capital

Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthi movement claimed responsibility for a ballistic missile attack targeting the airport in Saudi Arabia's capital, Riyadh, which resulted in severe damage to an aircraft. In response to the reported strike, multiple airlines have suspended their flights to the Saudi capital.

Saudi authorities have not yet commented on the latest Houthi claims regarding the Riyadh airport. However, the kingdom previously confirmed that three people were killed in separate airport strikes that occurred earlier in the week.
