Riyadh deputy governor assures Houthi attack victims of full medical support
Riyadh’s deputy governor told victims of the Houthi attack that Saudi leadership has directed all medical resources to ensure their recovery.
Riyadh's sense of safety has been shattered by recent Houthi attacks, according to reports. Deadly strikes on the capital's main airport have left at least 12 people dead and over 300 injured. The Yemen-based Houthis, who claim the attacks are retaliation for Saudi support of government forces in Yemen's civil war, also targeted oil facilities and Dammam airport. The assaults have raised concerns among expatriates about the kingdom's ability to maintain its image as a secure haven amidst regional turmoil.
