The Civil Aviation Organization of Saudi Arabia confirmed on Saturday, October 18, that following the ground attack on the King Khaled International Airport in Riyadh and the injury of several people, the operation of this port has been suspended.

In response, Donald Trump, the president of the United States, said that he had been informed about this ground attack and would make a decision about it.

🔸Donald Trump in a group of reporters and in response to the question of whether America will join Saudi Arabia's war with the Houthis, said: "It is possible. We will look into this matter. We have just learned about the latest ground attack. We will make a decision. We will act very quickly."

Earlier, several media outlets reported that the Riyadh government asked the United States to make the Houthis the target of military attacks. A week ago, the news site Axios reported that a number of national security officials in Donald Trump's administration discussed the next steps of the United States in the Iran war and Saudi Arabia's clash with the Houthis in Yemen in an unannounced meeting at Camp David on Friday.
