Two people were killed and eight others injured in an attack on an airport in Dammam, eastern Saudi Arabia on Wednesday evening, the kingdom’s General Authority of Civil Aviation (GACA) says.
Those killed at King Fahd International Airport were a Saudi citizen and an Indian resident, while the injured were Saudi, Indian, Yemeni, Bangladeshi and Nepalese nationals.
The GACA did not say what type of attack occurred, but Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi movement has repeatedly targeted the kingdom’s airports with drones and missiles.
