  "account": "A second Indian national has died following the October 10 attack on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, the Indian Embassy in Saudi Arabia announced on November 4, 2026. The embassy expressed its deep sorrow, stating that the deceased was another Indian national who was critically injured during the assault. They have been providing unwavering support to the victim's family since the tragedy. The embassy vowed to extend all necessary assistance to repatriate the deceased's remains to India or facilitate a funeral in Riyadh, depending on the family's preferences. The first Indian victim of the attack was Mohammed Yousuf Ali, whose funeral took place in Riyadh on October 12. As of October 23, the embassy reported that two Indian nationals were still in critical condition in the ICU, while two others remained in general hospital wards. Seven injured Indians had been released from the hospital by that date. Saudi Arabia held Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels responsible for the attack, though the group did not officially acknowledge responsibility. Initially, Saudi Arabia's General Authority of Civil Aviation reported 12 fatalities and 309 injuries, which were later revised to 13 fatalities and an increased injury count. The second death of an Indian national in the attack has brought the total number of casualties to 14.",
