Houthi forces launched a strike on King Fahd International Airport in Dammam, Saudi Arabia, according to the Saudi civil aviation authority. The attack, which targeted a facility in the kingdom's Eastern Province, resulted in fires and injuries. This incident occurred shortly after the Houthi group claimed responsibility for the strike, which is the latest in a series of aviation facility attacks within the country.

Prior to this event, a coalition of four nations—Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Turkey—issued a joint statement condemning the ongoing Houthi missile and drone strikes. The group characterized these actions as a "blatant violation of international law" and a direct threat to Saudi territorial integrity and civilian safety. They have called for an "immediate and unconditional halt" to all such military operations.

While the reports confirm the attack on the airport, there is a discrepancy regarding the broader context of recent casualties. Haaretz reported that this airport attack occurred one day after a separate Houthi strike resulted in 13 deaths. However, the Middle East Eye coverage focused primarily on the diplomatic condemnation and the confirmation of the Dammam airport strike, without explicitly detailing the casualty count from the previous day's events mentioned by Haaretz.
