Two teens to leave Riyadh hospital weeks after Houthi strike on airport killed father

Aman Ali, 18, and Wasi Ali, 16, the teenage sons of a software engineer killed in a Houthi missile strike at Riyadh’s international airport, have been discharged from Sulaiman Habib hospital, their family revealed. The brothers required surgery and continue to receive outpatient care for abdominal and limb injuries inflicted by falling debris and glass shards.

The tragic death of their father, Mohammad Yousuf Ali, 46, an Indian engineer, among 13 civilians killed in the October 10 attack, marked it as the deadliest in Saudi Arabia in over a decade. The family was en route to Madinah for their Umrah pilgrimage when the terminal was hit. Both boys have been discharged this weekend and will remain in Riyadh for further medical treatment, with their mother, sister, and aunt also staying in Riyadh.

The Indian ambassador to Saudi Arabia stated that the family will return to Hyderabad in weeks once their treatment is completed. Saudi Arabia has faced multiple Houthi attacks in recent weeks, with air defenses intercepting and destroying ballistic missiles launched towards the south.
