Riyadh airport hit again in fresh Houthi strike, 1 Pakistani killed, 11 wounded

Saudi Arabia's King Khalid International Airport suffered another Houthi strike, leaving one Pakistani citizen dead and 11 others wounded, according to the General Authority of Civil Aviation. The attack occurred on Sunday at the Riyadh airport. Australia's foreign minister criticized the Houthi attacks, advising citizens not to travel to the airport.

The Saudi-led coalition reported intercepting and destroying a ballistic missile launched by the Houthi militia towards Khamis Mushait.

Additionally, a drone attack hit a crude oil tanker off Sohar Anchorage, Oman, resulting in two Indian seafarers being reported missing.
