FAA warns U.S. airlines of safety risks over Saudi Arabia after attacks

The Federal Aviation Administration told U.S. airlines to exercise caution when flying in or around Saudi Arabia after deadly attacks claimed by Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis, which have shut down the airport in the Saudi capital. King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, remains closed as of Monday after attacks that started last week. The attacks escalated Saturday, when a projectile struck a passenger terminal at the airport, officials said, killing at least 12 people and wounding more than 300. Airlines suspended flights to the airport, some for the rest of the week. The U.S., Australia and other countries advised citizens against travel to the region.
