It did not identify those responsible, though the Houthis have claimed to target the airport repeatedly this week with ballistic missiles, including on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>Among the dead was Capt. Hamoud Ali Alkalthami, the Saudia Group said in a statement seen by the Associated Press. It appeared to be the first confirmed attack on the Saudi national carrier since the new offensive against the Houthis began.<\/p>\n<p>The Saudi aviation agency, GACA, said in its statement that injuries to citizens and people of other nationalities &#8220;ranged from minor to serious.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Houthis this week warned global airlines &#8220;for the last time&#8221; about the potential consequences of operating in Saudi airspace, which they have declared a theater for military operations.<\/p>\n<p>On Wednesday, Saudi officials said attacks on the Riyadh and Abha airports claimed by the Houthis had killed three people.<\/p>\n<p><em>CBS\/AP<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async
