BREAKING: Houthis Claim New Missile Attack on Riyadh Airport as Saudi Tensions Escalate

Riyadh, Saudi Arabia — Yemen’s Houthi movement has claimed a new ballistic missile attack targeting King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, as tensions between the Houthis and Saudi Arabia continue to escalate.

The Houthis claimed that a ballistic missile was launched toward the airport and said the attack disrupted air traffic. However, the claim has not been independently verified, and Saudi authorities have not confirmed that the airport itself was directly hit.

Saudi Arabia’s coalition said it intercepted two ballistic missiles heading toward Riyadh and another missile aimed at Khamis Mushait.

Saudi authorities also reported damage to a kindergarten and a medical complex caused by falling debris.

The latest escalation has caused major disruption to air travel, with several airlines suspending or cancelling flights to Riyadh. Indian carriers have also suspended some services amid the security concerns.

The latest incident follows earlier attacks on Saudi airports that reportedly killed three people and injured 36 others.

The situation remains developing as Saudi Arabia increases security measures and the regional conflict continues to threaten civilian infrastructure and air travel.
