Recent Houthi attacks on Riyadh’s King Khalid International Airport have disrupted the Gulf aviation industry’s reputation for stability. The strikes, linked to the Iran-aligned Houthi movement, have resulted in significant casualties and cancellations of flights, with 86% of scheduled flights canceled between October 8 and 25. Despite partial resumption of operations, the ongoing threat of further attacks indicates a sustained security disruption rather than an isolated incident. This situation raises questions about the potential for broader impacts on Saudi airspace management.
