A projectile landed near King Fahd International Airport in Dammam, Saudi Arabia, the spokesman for the coalition fighting in Yemen said. The airport is in the kingdom’s Eastern Province.
The Saudi civil aviation authority said damage assessments and safety checks were underway after the incident, according to the initial report. The coalition’s account described the projectile as landing in the airport’s vicinity; further details were not immediately available.
The report came amid a series of attacks on Saudi aviation facilities. The Associated Press reported that Yemen’s Houthi rebels had claimed attacks on several Saudi airports and other sites in the preceding week.
