Riyadh airport forced to halt operations after latest attack kills at least 12, injures 309

A deadly attack on Saudi Arabia's King Khalid International Airport on Saturday (Oct 10) killed at least 12 people and injured 309, forcing a suspension of operations. It was the 3rd attack on the airport in a week. Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis had claimed responsibility for earlier strikes on the airport this week, but made no immediate claim over the latest attack. The Saudi-led coalition blamed the group for Saturday's attack and has vowed a decisive response. The strike comes amid escalating missile attacks against Saudi Arabia, raising fears of a wider conflict. US President Donald Trump has also signalled that Washington could join military action against the Houthis. #saudiarabia #riyadh Subscribe to our channel here: https://cna.asia/youtubesub Visit our website: https://cna.asia Download our app: https://cna.asia/app Get our editors' picks of stories via chat apps: Telegram: https://cna.asia/telegram WhatsApp: https://cna.asia/whatsapp Follow us on these platforms: https://www.facebook.com/channelnewsasia https://www.instagram.com/channelnewsasia https://www.tiktok.com/@channelnewsasia
