  "summary": "Saudi Arabia issued an all-clear at its main airport in Riyadh on Saturday after detecting a large plume of smoke near the facility. The alerts were sent overnight, warning of potential danger and accompanied by booms heard by residents. The source of the smoke remains unclear, but the incident comes amid heightened tensions with Yemen's Houthi group, who have been launching attacks on Saudi Arabia since July. The UN Security Council has also condemned these attacks, particularly those impacting civilian and energy infrastructure.",
