Houthi attack on Riyadh airport leaves 12 dead, flights halted
Islamabad invoked its joint defence commitments with Saudi Arabia after consecutive drone and missile strikes hit King Khalid International Airport, killing at least 12 people.
Pakistan's Foreign Office and political leadership strongly condemned consecutive Houthi strikes on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh.
Islamabad reaffirmed its commitments under the Makkah Agreement for Joint Defence to support Saudi sovereignty and territorial security.
The airport strikes killed at least a dozen people, wounded over 300, and forced authorities to temporarily suspend flight operations.
The Yemeni militia claimed multiple strikes across Saudi hubs, including Dammam airport, prompting retaliatory coalition actions in Sanaa.
