The supplied page content does not include the article’s live updates or reporting. It contains only the headline, “Iran war live: Saudi Arabia downs Houthi ballistic missile targeting Riyadh,” followed by website advertising and a prompt to enable alerts. As a result, the article’s details, chronology, sources, and broader context cannot be summarized from the provided text. The headline indicates two reported developments: Saudi Arabia downed a Houthi ballistic missile that was targeting Riyadh, and Israel launched what the headline describes as a targeted operation in Hebron after an attack. The headline and URL frame these events within coverage of the US-Israel war on Iran, but the supplied content does not explain how the events are connected, provide official statements, or give further information about casualties, damage, or military responses. The page’s “26 Updates” label suggests that the original item was a liveblog with multiple updates, none of which are included here. No additional article text can be recovered from the supplied material without access to the linked page. This summary therefore reports only what the headline explicitly states and does not infer details beyond it.

Yemen’s Iran-allied Houthi rebels said they attacked a range of Saudi oil facilities and airports on Saturday, while Yemen’s internationally recognised, Saudi-backed government reported additional missile strikes on coast guard sites in Aden. Houthi spokesperson Yahya Saree listed targets including King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, an Aramco facility in Yanbu, the Rabigh refinery, crude-oil pumping stations and the East-West Pipeline. He also named King Fahd International Airport in Dammam, an airport in Najran and an airbase in Khamis Mushait. Saudi authorities had not immediately confirmed the Houthi claims, and it was unclear whether the reported attacks struck their targets or were intercepted. The Saudi-led coalition said it destroyed two Houthi ballistic missiles headed toward Yanbu and Taif. Yemen’s government said two missiles hit a coast guard headquarters in Aden and a third struck a coast guard building in the Tawahi district. Saree separately claimed Houthi forces had targeted Saudi-backed military gatherings at Al-Nasr camp and a naval base in Aden, where he alleged Saudi officers were overseeing mobilisation. The coalition did not immediately comment on that assertion. Saudi Civil Defense briefly warned residents of possible danger in Taif, Yanbu, Mecca and Jeddah, then said about ten minutes later that the threat had passed. The attacks mark a sharp escalation that has broken a UN-brokered 2022 truce, which had largely halted cross-border attacks between the Saudi-led coalition and the Houthis, who control Sanaa. The article says the escalation has opened another front in the US-Israeli war on Iran. Earlier in the month, the Houthis warned airlines against using Saudi airspace, except over Mecca and Medina, as attacks on the kingdom intensified.

Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthi movement renewed its warning on Oct. 25 against using King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, describing the airport as unsafe and a continuing “military target.” The warning was directed at airlines, airport employees and travellers, according to the article. It came as the airport announced that it would reopen or resume operations in terminals 1 and 2 for domestic and international flights from Sunday, Oct. 25, 2026. In a post on X late on Oct. 24, the airport said Terminal 1 would serve domestic flights and Terminal 2 would serve international flights operated by national carriers.
The article places the warning in the context of a deadly attack on Riyadh’s international airport on Oct. 10. That attack killed 12 people and wounded more than 300, according to the report. The airport’s announcement and the Houthis’ warning therefore present sharply different messages: the airport outlined arrangements for flight operations, while the group cautioned that the site remained a military target.
The report does not provide further details about the renewed threat, the airport’s security measures, or how airlines and travellers responded. It also identifies the Houthis as aligned with Iran but does not elaborate on the broader conflict. The story is a concise account of the safety warning and the planned terminal arrangements, with the previous attack underscoring the potential danger associated with the airport.
