Attacks on King Khalid Airport in Riyadh have raised concerns over escalating tensions in the Middle East. According to a BBC report, Saturday’s attack killed 12 people and injured more than 300. On Sunday, the Saudi-led coalition said an “unknown projectile” struck a passenger hall, while a cruise missile was intercepted nearby. The attacks have raised questions about Saudi Arabia’s air defences and threaten its reputation for stability. The Houthi movement, backed by Iran, has also targeted strategic sites and shipping routes near the Red Sea. US President Donald Trump said Washington would decide quickly whether to intervene militarily. (PC: BBC)
