Yemen's Houthi rebels have again attacked Riyadh Airport in Saudi Arabia, causing multiple casualties, leading oil executives to withdraw from the World Petroleum Congress.
According to Xinhua News Agency, Yemen's Houthi rebels launched four military operations against airports and energy facilities in Saudi Arabia within the past 24 hours. On the 10th, King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, the Saudi capital, was attacked, resulting in 12 deaths and 309 injuries. On the 11th, Terminal 4 of the same airport was again hit by an unidentified projectile, and air defense systems intercepted and destroyed a missile near the airport. The attack caused a fire, and the Saudi General Authority of Civil Aviation confirmed that this attack again resulted in injuries. This attack not only caused significant casualties but also directly impacted the Saudi economy and foreign investor confidence. Executives from top oil companies such as BP and Shell have announced their withdrawal from the World Petroleum Congress, originally scheduled to open in Riyadh on the 11th. Several institutions in Riyadh's financial district have switched to remote work. Facing pressure, Donald Trump stated that the United States is considering joining Saudi Arabia's strike operations against the Houthis and will make a decision as soon as possible.
