Riyadh airport stays closed as Saudis probe failures in deadly attack

Key points

• Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport will stay closed until October 17 after a weekend missile and drone attack killed 14 people and injured about 320. Saudi officials are investigating why air defences failed to intercept the barrage.
• Yemen's Houthis say they have launched further attacks on Riyadh airport and an air base in Khamis Mushait. Saudi officials want the United States to become more directly involved, while Donald Trump says he is considering US strikes against the Houthis.
• An Emirati diplomat has called for joint Gulf action against attacks by Iran and its allies.
