  "account": "Wisma Putra has confirmed that no Malaysian citizens were killed or injured in the attack at Raja Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, last night. The embassy stated that the Malaysian consulate in Riyadh is in contact with Malaysian travelers who are on their way and need assistance with temporary accommodation amid the ongoing operations at the airport. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs continues to monitor the evolving situation and reports of a projectile that fell near Raja Fadh International Airport in Dammam. Meanwhile, Wisma Putra urges Malaysian residents, both in transit and planning to visit Saudi Arabia, to remain vigilant. Due to ongoing flight disruptions, those with travel plans in the near future are advised to confirm flight status directly with their airline before reaching the airport. Malaysians are also advised to prepare for potential delays or flight cancellations, staying updated through official channels and strictly following safety instructions from local authorities. Earlier reports by media claimed that 12 people were killed and 309 were injured in the attack. According to Saudi civil aviation authorities, among the victims were four Saudi nationals, two Bangladesh nationals, one American, one Egyptian, one Jordanian, one Syrian, one Palestinian and one Sudanese. Some of the injured are reported to be in serious condition. The Houthi rebel group's drone strikes on Saudi Arabia have reportedly increased in frequency over the past few weeks. To ensure timely communication and facilitate the provision of consular assistance, Wisma Putra urges Malaysian citizens to register and update their information through https://ekonsular.kln.gov.my. For immediate consular help or during emergencies, Malaysians can contact the Malaysian consulate in Riyadh at 00 966 11 488 7098 / 00 966 11 488 7100 or the emergency hotline 00 966 56 300 6319 (after office hours) or email mwriyadh@kln.gov.my.",
