'Many wounded' as missile hits Riyadh airport terminal
Many people have been wounded in a blast at Riyadh's international airport, according to eyewitnesses and two people briefed on the matter, while travellers have been evacuated from parts of the facility.
Two Saudi officials have confirmed that a missile struck the King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, causing injuries to numerous individuals. The incident occurred two days after three Saudi citizens were killed at the same location. Eyewitnesses reported hearing loud explosions and ambulances rushing towards the airport. Flights to Riyadh were diverted, with some airlines canceling operations altogether.
The Canadian embassy warned citizens against traveling to the airport due to ongoing military activity. The Saudi government has not yet issued an official response to the attack.
