A Houthi missile caused significant damage to Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport, per Shafaq News. The attack occurred late yesterday evening.

U.S. Embassy in Riyadh ordered non-essential staff to leave the country, as Saudi Arabia issued four security alerts including one for Riyadh, Bloomberg reports.

The airport remains closed following the strike, disrupting international flights and prompting heightened security measures across the capital, Reuters notes.
