Iran-backed Houthi forces launched devastating missile and drone attacks on Saudi Arabia's capital, with strikes hitting Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport on consecutive days 348. The initial Saturday assault killed at least 13 people and injured more than 300 346, while a subsequent Sunday attack claimed at least one additional life 346. Houthi military spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Saree confirmed responsibility for the strikes, stating the group deployed ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and unmanned aircraft targeting two airports, a gas facility, and Saudi Aramco oil refineries 78. The group declared all Saudi airports legitimate targets except the holy cities of Mecca and Medina 38.
The attacks have severely disrupted Saudi Arabia's aviation and economic operations. Riyadh's airport cancelled 99.7 percent of Sunday flights, with 60 percent of Monday's flights expected to be cancelled 3. Nationwide, more than one-third of Saudi flights faced cancellation on Monday 3. Major international carriers responded by suspending service: Lufthansa Group cancelled all flights to Riyadh through October 16 3, while Air France-KLM extended suspensions through the end of the month 3. Several top oil industry executives were removed from scheduled events following the strikes 2.
Saudi Energy Minister Prince Abdul Aziz bin Salman pledged a "serious response" to the attacks, stating: "The events of recent weeks are serious. Our response must be equally serious" 4. An informal ceasefire that began in July deteriorated as the Houthis announced a maritime blockade on Saudi Arabia and escalated missile and drone strikes 4. In retaliation for the airport attacks, Saudi Arabia conducted airstrikes on the Houthi-controlled Yemeni capital Sanaa 3.
The escalation has drawn international attention. U.S. President Trump indicated Washington is considering joining Saudi military operations against the Houthis 35. China's Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning stated: "China condemns the attacks that have caused heavy casualties and expresses serious concern about the escalation of the conflict" 3. Iran offered to help broker negotiations between Saudi Arabia and Yemen 3.
