Residents in Saudi Arabia’s capital say they have heard new explosions in Riyadh

Residents in Saudi Arabia's capital, Riyadh, have reported hearing new explosions, according to local sources. The incidents occurred on the first annual payment anniversary of a subscription service that costs $205.00 plus GST for one year, with automatic renewal at $233.00 plus GST every 52 weeks. The source of the explosions remains unknown, with authorities reporting air raid alerts in Riyadh and Kharj province, which is home to key military installations.

Kharj also hosts Prince Sultan Air Base. Iran-backed Houthi rebels from Yemen have claimed responsibility for targeting Saudi Arabia's airports and military facilities, including King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, which has been attacked multiple times in recent days. The ongoing conflict has seen the Houthis repeatedly strike key targets in the kingdom, highlighting the challenges Saudi Arabia faces in defending against Houthi missile and drone attacks.

In a separate incident, a fire broke out at an administrative building at a facility operated by Saudi Aramco, one of the world's largest oil companies, adding to the escalating tensions in the region.
