The Saudi-led coalition said a projectile struck a terminal at Riyadh’s airport Sunday, a day after a missile attack killed 13 people and injured 309.

An unidentified projectile struck Saudi Arabia’s main international airport Sunday, injuring people a day after a deadly missile attack at the same site raised questions about whether the United States would join another conflict in the region.

Saudi Arabia’s General Authority of Civil Aviation confirmed the death of a Pakistani resident and injuries to 11 others in the new attack on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh. It said authorities were assessing damage and checking the safety of airport facilities.

The Saudi-led coalition said the projectile struck Terminal 4, causing a fire that authorities were working to control. It also reported intercepting and destroying a cruise missile near the airport.

    Uh for the record fuck the Saudi regime. That aside you’re either not actually reading anything I say or you think “secular nationalist dictator” is a string of words that can be a defense of someone, and either way this isn’t a conversation worth having, so instead I’ll just say: “Fanatic” is a word that describes people, not things.

      WTF? Of course a toaster can’t be fanatic!?!?!?! What’s you point. Also a nationalist dictator can be equally fanatic, I never claimed otherwise!?!?!

      What are you on about? None of that changes the fact that the Saudi regime is both religious and fanatic, any debate on whether they would be as fanatic without relifion is irrelevant, because that’s not the reality we are dealing with.
