What happened

Well supportedReported by 12 independent outlets

Houthis have repeatedly conducted military strikes against Saudi infrastructure, including King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh and facilities in Dammam. On November 2, Houthis claimed to have targeted Dammam airport with two drones and launched drones toward a radar site in Jizan and a military transport aircraft at Jizan airport. Earlier, attacks on King Khalid International Airport caused it to shut down for a period, leading to the postponement of a major investment conference until 2027.

The attacks have caused significant disruption to regional logistics and air travel. In response to heightened security concerns, Air India and Air India Express extended the suspension of flights to and from Saudi Arabia, covering Jeddah, Riyadh, and Dammam. The closure of King Khalid International Airport was described as a major blow to Saudi Arabia.
