Saudi Arabia attacks King Fahd Airport
King Fahd International Airport in Dammam was targeted in an attack on Sunday evening. Coalition forces led by Saudi Arabia intercepted a drone that was aiming at the airport, amid a escalation by the Houthis in their attacks on civil aviation facilities in Saudi Arabia. The Civil Aviation Authority announced that the attack resulted in the death of 12 people and injuries to hundreds. The kingdom confirmed that the recent attacks primarily targeted Riyadh and Dammam airports. The Houthis have also issued warnings not to operate flights to all Saudi airports except for the holy sites of Mecca and Medina. This comes within the context of an ongoing military escalation by the Houthis against Saudi Arabia, as they carried out four targeted operations within 24 hours against Saudi targets. Saudi Arabia and other countries view the Houthis as an increasing security threat.
