  "account": "Twelve people lost their lives and over 300 were injured in a terrorist attack at the main airport in Saudi Arabia's capital, according to Anadolu Agency citing civil aviation authorities. Four Saudis, two Bangladeshis, and one each from the United States, Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Palestine, and Sudan were among the fatalities. Victims were receiving treatment in hospitals, with some in critical condition. The attack also caused damage, and authorities are assessing the extent of the damage. The civil aviation authority had previously announced that the airport's operation was suspended temporarily to allow officials to evaluate the damage and ensure the safety of the airport facilities. The suspension caused flight disruptions, and passengers were advised to check their flight status with their respective airlines before heading to the airport. Kuwait Airways also canceled outgoing and return flights to Riyadh on Saturday following the closure of the airport. The attack came amid increasing tension and multiple missile and drone strikes by the Houthi group against airports and facilities in Saudi Arabia over recent days.",
