Saudi Arabia reported facing a new barrage of incoming fire on Monday, with Riyadh airport remaining shut for now, days after Saturday's deadly missile strike on a departure terminal that was claimed by Yemen's Iran-allied Houthis. The Saudi-led coalition backing government forces in Yemen reported incoming drones and missiles, though there was no immediate news of whether they were intercepted. The Houthis have been attacking Saudi airports and oil facilities as part of a conflict that has spilled over from the wider regional conflagration between the United States and Iran. These attacks have shut down parts of Saudi airspace, suspending operations at Riyadh airport. Iran's foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, spoke with his Saudi counterpart, Faisal bin Farhan, on Sunday to discuss potential mediation between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis.
