  "summary": "A missile attack on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, has killed 12 people and injured over 300 others. The attack, blamed on Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen by the Saudi-led coalition, occurred on Saturday afternoon. The fatalities included four Saudi citizens and eight foreign nationals: two from Bangladesh, and one each from the United States, Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Palestine, and Sudan.\n\nThe injured are receiving medical treatment at several hospitals, with some in critical condition. The attack also caused material damage, which authorities are assessing. According to CBS News, the incident occurred at a complex housing terminals 3 and 4 for domestic flights.\n\nUS President Donald Trump condemned the attack, saying \"what happened in Saudi Arabia is not acceptable.\" He also stated that he would speak with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and consider whether to join the Saudi-led coalition fighting the Houthi rebels. The US Secretary of State confirmed an American had been killed in the attack.",
