2026 Iran War: 2026-10-11

Saudi-led coalition spokesman Maj Gen Turki al-Maliki said a Houthi attack hit a passenger terminal at King Khalid International Airport, killing and wounding civilian passengers and staff. He called the strike a "full-fledged war crime" and said the coalition would respond. The BBC said a projectile also fell near King Fahd International Airport in Dammam on Saturday.

President Donald Trump told reporters the United States may join Saudi Arabia in strikes against Yemen's Houthis after Saturday's attack on King Khalid International Airport. "We just found out about the recent attack, so we'll make a decision. We move very quickly," he said, according to the BBC. Saudi authorities say 12 people were killed and 309 injured in the strike.

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said he was "deeply shocked" by attacks on Saudi airports and called them a "violation of international law" that "must cease immediately," the BBC reported. Kuwait, Egypt, Palestine and Qatar also condemned the Riyadh strike. Saudi authorities put the toll at 12 dead and 309 injured.
