Saudi Arabia suspended all flights at King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh on Wednesday after an attack killed at least two people and wounded dozens, medical sources said.
The Saudi civil aviation authority confirmed the attack and halted operations at the airport, one of the largest in the Middle East.
Suspected Houthi forces are believed to be behind the strike. The Houthis, a rebel group based in Yemen, have launched repeated attacks on Saudi territory during the country's years-long war in Yemen.
