MOSCOW, October 19. /TASS/. The international airport in Saudi Arabia’s capital has temporarily suspended operations, a source in the air traffic control services confirmed to TASS.

"The Riyadh airport has suspended operations; no inbound or outbound flights are being serviced," the source said.

Earlier, Yemen’s SABA news agency controlled by the rebel Houthi movement Ansar Allah reported, citing flight-tracking data, that the airports of Abha, Dammam and Riyadh had suspended operations. A regional air traffic control source told TASS, however, that the Abha and Dammam airports remained operational.
