King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh has faced repeated attacks, forcing authorities to extend its operational suspension. According to officials, Saturday’s strike killed 12 people and injured more than 300, while another attack on Sunday killed one person and wounded nearly a dozen.

Australia and New Zealand joined the US, UK, Canada, France, Germany and Japan in warning citizens about travel to Saudi Arabia.

US President Donald Trump said Washington may support Saudi Arabia in retaliating against the Houthis. Meanwhile, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi told his Saudi counterpart that Tehran was willing to facilitate dialogue between Riyadh and Yemen.

Iran is also reviewing a US response to its proposal concerning the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, Reuters reported.
