- The UK Foreign Office has updated its travel advisory to warn against all but essential travel to almost the whole of Saudi Arabia.
- The advisory follows a strike on Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport on 10 October that killed at least 13 people and injured hundreds.
- The FCDO highlighted heightened risks from Houthi rebel missile and drone attacks targeting airports, energy infrastructure, and Red Sea shipping.
- British nationals wishing to leave Saudi Arabia are advised to consider travelling by land to neighbouring countries amid widespread flight cancellations.
- Holidaymakers may be entitled to full refunds for cancelled package trips, but travelling against FCDO guidance risks invalidating travel insurance.
