Two teenagers, Aman Ali, 18, and Wasi Ali, 16, have been discharged from Sulaiman Habib hospital in Riyadh weeks after their father was killed in a Houthi missile strike on the King Khalid International Airport. The airport attack, described as the deadliest in Saudi Arabia in over a decade, killed their father, 46-year-old Mohammad Yousuf Ali, along with 13 other civilians.
Both boys suffered injuries from falling debris and glass shards and required surgery. Their mother, sister, and aunt were also at the airport and sustained minor injuries. The family, originally traveling to Madinah for an Umrah pilgrimage, was returning to Hyderabad, India when the attack occurred. The Indian ambassador to Saudi Arabia confirmed the family would return home in the coming weeks for additional medical treatment. The Saudi government has covered the family's medical expenses.
