Summary

Yemen's Houthi rebels claim to have carried out multiple missile strikes on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh starting October 10-12, 2026. The Indian Ministry of External Affairs and Turkey's Ministry of Foreign Affairs have denied the attacks occurred. Witnesses at the airport reported seeing flames and thick smoke. Reports of casualties and injuries vary significantly across accounts, ranging from one to 13 deaths and from 11 to over 300 injuries. The airport suspended flights following the incidents. Saudi Arabia's General Authority of Civil Aviation and a witness on a taxiing aircraft at the airport confirmed the strikes, while the Houthis claimed responsibility for at least four operations against the facility. The Philippine Department of Migrant Workers advised Filipinos in Riyadh to avoid potentially targeted areas. Reuters has not independently confirmed the attacks.
