1 maut, 8 cedera lapangan terbang Arab Saudi diserang
Serangan lewat Rabu itu menyasarkan Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa King Fahd di Dammam, timur Arab Saudi.
Three lives were lost and eight more sustained injuries in a Wednesday attack on Saudi Arabia's King Fahd International Airport in Dammam, eastern Saudi Arabia, according to the country's public aviation authorities, as reported by Anadolu Agency. Victims were taken to hospitals for treatment with varying degrees of severity, from minor to severe injuries.
The attack also caused damage to property, with authorities stating that further assessments and repairs are planned. The Saudi Ministry of Energy announced on Wednesday that two individuals were killed and two others injured when a drone strike hit an Aramco maintenance conveyor at the Shaybah oil field in Eastern Region. The strike caused a fire in a contractor's vehicle, but the oil field operations remained unaffected, the ministry said.
The Saudi-led coalition also announced on Wednesday that it had destroyed five drones launched at the kingdom, including in Eastern Region and Madinah. King Fahd International Airport had been previously targeted on October 11, leading to assessments and safety reviews. The incident occurred amidst escalating tensions between the UAE-backed Houthi rebels and the Saudi-led coalition, including attacks targeting Saudi airports and energy facilities.
