Houthis attack Riyadh airport, killing at least 12 people

Houthi rebels attacked King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on Saturday. The attack killed at least 12 people and injured more than 300 others. Some of the injured are in critical condition. The airport stopped all flights after the strike. A second Houthi attack followed on Sunday.

The Houthis are an armed group based in Yemen and supported by Iran. Fighting between the Houthis and Saudi-backed forces has been growing for several weeks. This was the deadliest attack on Saudi soil in more than ten years. It was also the deadliest strike in any Gulf Arab country since the Iran war began.

Saudi Arabia has threatened a "decisive" response to the attacks.
