Saudi Arabia confirms three dead in Houthi strikes on its airports

Saudi Arabia has confirmed that Houthi strikes on two of its international airports have killed three people.

What the coverage shows

Both outlets focus on airport attacks and report three deaths, but Al Jazeera frames the story as Saudi Arabia saying Houthi attacks killed three foreign nationals, while The Independent folds it into an “Iran-US war latest” package. Al Jazeera alone specifies the reported nationalities and locations of the dead, naming Moroccan and Algerian women in Abha and a Sudanese national in Riyadh. The Independent alone adds that Yemen says Houthis attacked Aden International Airport with ballistic missiles and explosive-laden drones.
