Saudi Arabia's General Authority of Civil Aviation says at least 12 people were killed and 309 wounded in Saturday's attack on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, the third attack on the airport in a week. The dead were four Saudis, two Bangladeshis and one each from the United States, Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Palestine and Sudan. The Saudi-led coalition blamed Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis and vowed to respond; the Houthis warned travelers against using most Saudi airports. Airport operations were suspended. President Trump said the U.S. may join Saudi strikes on the Houthis: "We may. We're going to look at it."

President Zelenskyy saysThe diesel deal was made without consulting Ukraine, is "not fair and not honest," and will give Russia more money to keep fighting.

Sorffly Davius, who died in Kuwait on March 6, and a Navy service member who died in September. It lists 865 service members wounded.
