Saudi authorities say a Pakistani citizen died and several people were injured in a second strike on Riyadh's airport. The attack is attributed to the Houthis, an armed movement from Yemen.
A Pakistani citizen has been killed and several other people injured in a second strike on the airport in Riyadh, the Saudi capital, according to Saudi authorities.
The attack is linked to the Houthis, an armed movement from Yemen that is involved in military confrontations in the region. Al Jazeera's video report describes the strike as a Houthi attack.
The information available does not say how many people were hurt, how serious their injuries are, what weapon was used, or whether airport operations were disrupted. It also does not say when the earlier strike took place.
The strike hit a major transport facility in the capital, which may affect the security situation in the region. For now, Saudi authorities have confirmed only the nationality of the person killed and that there were casualties.
