Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport was hit again, just two days after a deadly attack.

Saudi officials said a projectile caused a fire in one of the passenger halls and left people hurt.

The military said air defences stopped one missile near the airport.

The latest strike came after an attack on Saturday that reportedly killed 12 people and wounded more than 300.

The airport was also hit earlier in the week.

The Houthis in Yemen have claimed the attacks.

They say they fired missiles and drones at the airport and at Dammam Airport in the east.

They warned airlines and travellers to stay away from Saudi airports and airspace, except in Mecca and Medina.

The Houthis say the attacks are a response to Saudi support for Yemen's government and a Saudi air strike on Sanaa Airport.

Saudi Arabia has not confirmed that strike.

U.S. President Donald Trump said Washington will decide soon whether to strike the Houthis.

Britain said it could offer more help to Saudi Arabia.

The UK has also warned its citizens against travel to parts of Saudi Arabia, including areas near the Yemen border.
