  "summary": "An attack at King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, killed 12 people and injured over 300 others, with some in critical condition. The nationalities of the victims include four Saudi nationals, two Bangladeshis, and one each from the United States, Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Palestine, and Sudan, according to The Indian Express.\n\nThe attack, blamed by a Saudi-led coalition on Iran-backed Houthi fighters in Yemen, was the third this week on the same airport. It caused significant disruption, with all flights to Riyadh diverted or cancelled, and the airport suspending operations.\n\nThe US President Donald Trump condemned the attack, saying it was \"not acceptable\", and stated that the US might join strikes against the Houthis, with a decision to be made quickly. The US Secretary of State and other diplomatic missions urged their citizens to avoid the airport or warned against travelling there, advising passengers to check their flight status with their airline.",
