  "account": "Twelve people were killed and 309 injured in an attack on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, according to Saudi Arabia's Civil Aviation Authority. The airport halted operations following the strike, which came amid a Saudi-led coalition's ongoing air campaign against the Houthis in Yemen. US President Donald Trump announced he would determine swiftly whether the United States should participate in Saudi strikes on the group. He also mentioned the Iran conflict would conclude one way or the other soon, without specifying the outcome. Meanwhile, a tanker was hit by a mine in the Strait of Hormuz, and the Kremlin reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin had conveyed Iran's stance on a potential settlement to Trump. In response to the incident, Saudi Arabia requested assistance for citizens stranded overseas, and Western embassies cautioned their citizens to stay away from the area.",
