  "summary": "A deadly attack on Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport has killed 12 people and injured 309 others, according to Saudi authorities. The attack, which occurred on Saturday, was blamed on Yemen's Houthis by a Saudi-led military coalition, who called it a \"war crime\". The incident has raised concerns about civilian safety and regional aviation security.\n\nThe victims included four Saudis, two people from Bangladesh, and one person each from the US, Jordan, Palestine, Syria, Sudan, and Egypt, according to the Saudi civil aviation authority. Some of the injured were in critical condition, and operations at the airport have been suspended. The Houthis have not commented on Saturday's attack, but did claim responsibility for previous strikes on the same airport.\n\nThe attack has been widely condemned, with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen calling it a serious escalation. The Saudi-led coalition has vowed to respond to the attack, which is the deadliest in the kingdom since May 2015.",
