A projectile struck a passenger terminal at King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh on Sunday, just a day after a missile attack killed 12 people, according to the Saudi-led coalition fighting Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen. The Houthis claimed responsibility for all the attacks. One Pakistani national was killed, and 11 were injured in the latest assault on the domestic terminal complex.
The airport has been closed since Saturday's deadliest missile attack in a Gulf Arab nation since the Iran war started, leaving over 300 others wounded, some critically. The intensifying conflict threatens to draw the U.S. into the war, with President Donald Trump reportedly considering joining the fight against the Houthis.
