Saudi authorities claimed that a cruise missile was destroyed in the air. They also said that a drone and a ballistic missile launched towards Khamis Mushait were intercepted.
A missile reportedly struck the runway at King Fahd Airport in Dammam, after which part of the airport caught fire. Passengers were evacuated, according to reports. The attack was reported to have taken place at around 8pm on Sunday.
