Riyadh airport attack kills 12, injures over 300

Houthi fighters struck King Khalid International Airport with a ballistic missile on Saturday. The attack killed at least 12 people and injured more than 300, forcing an immediate halt to all commercial flights across the capital.

Iran-backed rebels claimed responsibility for the bombing. They have targeted the airport multiple times in the week following a Saudi-led military offensive.

Saudi officials confirmed the casualty figures shortly after the explosion. Donald Trump condemned the strike, calling the attacks “not acceptable.”

One of the victims is American. Emergency crews treated the wounded inside the terminal while staff cleared debris and restored security protocols.
