On Saturday Yemen's Houthis have once again pummeled Saudi Arabia's King Khalid International Airport in Ryiadh with a volley of ballistic missiles. A major emergency response has ensued with dozens of ambulances at the scene, and a total evacuation of the major flight hub.
In this fresh instance, which comes after multiple attacks on the kingdom's civilian aviation hubs stretching back at least a week, there appears to be mass casualties as a result.
