Europe's aviation safety agency, EASA, has broadened its warning regarding Saudi Arabian airspace after the Houthis attacked Riyadh airport. Initially issued September 30th, the updated bulletin reflects the Houthis’ demonstrated capability to reach deeper into Saudi territory. EASA added a new area in northwestern Saudi Arabia to its advisory, indicating increased risk for civil aviation. This expansion signifies heightened concerns over potential attacks in the region, impacting air travel safety. The regulator’s notice advises airlines to avoid specified areas within Saudi Arabia due to the ongoing conflict and threat posed by Houthi strikes. This update underscores the volatile security situation in Yemen and its impact on neighboring countries.
