Riyadh airport attacked again; Trump says U.S. 'may' join Saudi strikes
King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh was attacked again Saturday afternoon. Saudi Arabia's General Authority of Civil Aviation said several people were injured and suspended operations while it assessed the damage. The Houthis had not claimed Saturday's attack; they claimed earlier attacks on the airport this week. Asked whether the U.S. would join Saudi strikes on the Houthis, President Trump said, "We may. We're going to look at it." The U.S. Embassy urged Americans to avoid the airport.
