🔻Hours after an air-attack warning was issued in Saudi Arabia’s capital, black smoke and flames were seen near King Riyadh International Airport.

This is the first time since the recent escalation of fighting with Yemen’s Houthis that residents were warned and asked to stay at home.

Reports have been published of major disruptions at the “King Khalid” International Airport, and the flight-tracking website “FlightRadar24” has reported long delays and flight cancellations. The Saudi government has not yet issued any official comments on the matter.
