A video showing the moment a Houthi strike hit a passenger terminal at King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, has surfaced online, as repeated attacks on the kingdom's aviation infrastructure raise security concerns.
The latest strike reportedly hit Terminal 4, triggering a fire that killed one person and injured 11 others, according to Saudi civil aviation authorities.
The attack came a day after a deadly strike claimed by the Yemen-based Houthi group killed 13 people, including an Indian national.
More than 300 people were reportedly injured in that attack, some critically, taking the reported death toll across the two incidents to 14.
The back-to-back strikes have forced authorities to suspend operations at Riyadh's international airport.
