A projectile struck King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, killing one person and injuring 11, according to Saudi civil aviation authorities. The deceased is a Pakistani resident, and the injured were taken to various hospitals. The attack damaged terminals 3 and 4, which serve domestic flights, a day after a Houthi missile attack killed 12 and wounded over 300 at the airport. The airport has been closed since Saturday’s attack, the deadliest in the country since the US-Israel war on Iran began in late February.
