Saudi Arabia investment hit after deadly airport attacks by Houthi forces

Saudi Arabia’s attempts to attract international investment are facing significant challenges following deadly attacks on Riyadh’s King Khalid International Airport. The attacks, attributed to the Iran-backed Houthi movement, resulted in the deaths of at least 13 people and injured more than 300. These events have led several major companies, including BP and Shell, to withdraw their executives from upcoming international events in the kingdom, indicating security concerns. As the situation unfolds, market participants are considering the potential for a temporary closure of Saudi airspace, which could further impact investment and economic activities.
