The wave of Houthi attacks on Saudi airports drives another escalation that could drag Trump in.

A missile attack by Houthi rebels from Yemen on Saturday hit terminal 3 of King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, killing 12 people and injuring 309, with several in critical condition. The attack was claimed by the Houthi insurgents and prompted a vow of retaliation from Riyadh. The incident has raised fears of a regional escalation, which could potentially draw in the United States.

US President Donald Trump said he was considering bombing the Yemeni rebels. Another missile attack on a different terminal of the same airport caused several injuries.
