Prime Minister Mark Carney condemned the violence late Saturday night, calling the Houthis’ attacks on civilian infrastructure “abhorrent” and unjustified. “Canada condemns these reckless acts of violence in the strongest possible terms,” the prime minister said in his social media post. “We extend our deepest condolences to the families of those killed and wish a full recovery to those injured.”The airport remained closed Sunday and flight-tracking websites showed no air traffic around Riyadh on Sunday. The most recent strike in Riyadh came shortly after the Houthis blamed the Saudis for a strike against an airport in Sanaa, Yemen. The attacks mark an escalation in the broader Iran war in the Middle East. U. S. President Donald Trump has said on Saturday he is weighing whether to join the fight against the Houthis and said he plans to talk with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand posted on social media on Saturday that she has been in contact with Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan Al-Saud.

Canada’s ambassador to Saudi Arabia said on Sunday the embassy in Riyadh remains open for Canadians in need of consular assistance, which came as Ottawa condemned Houthi attacks on the international airport in Riyadh. Ambassador Jean-Philippe Linteau said in a video on Sunday that anyone in Riyadh who encounters military debris should walk away and contact authorities, and not post about it on social media. The Saudi-led coalition fighting Houthi rebels in Yemen said another projectile hit a passenger terminal at the Riyadh airport on Sunday. That comes just a day after a missile attack on the same terminal killed 12 people and injured hundreds more. Canada issued a travel advisory to avoid all non-essential travel to Saudi Arabia, and to avoid all travel to the King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh.
