Trump weighs U.S. role after new attack on Riyadh airport

A missile struck a complex at King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on Saturday, and many people were wounded, according to a regional official.

Airport operations were suspended, and flights were diverted while officials assessed the damage and injuries.

Earlier in the week, Houthi rebels claimed attacks on the airport that killed three Saudis, including a pilot.

The attacks have increased since a Saudi-led coalition began a major offensive against the Houthis in Yemen.

The fighting has also raised concerns about shipping near the Red Sea and added to regional tensions during the Iran war.

Attacks on Saudi airports, military sites and oil infrastructure have unsettled markets, while Saudi Arabia is reported to be running low on missile interceptors.

President Donald Trump said he was considering whether the U.S. should join Saudi strikes, but no decision was announced.

The Saudi and Omani foreign ministers discussed diplomatic ways to reduce tensions.
