Riyadh, Saudi Arabia: The Indian embassy in Saudi Arabia on Wednesday announced the death of another of its nationals who was wounded in the October 10 attack on Riyadh's international airport.

"With a heavy heart, we share that another Indian national, critically injured in the 10 October attack on Riyadh airport, has passed away in ICU," the embassy said in a post on X.

The latest death brings the toll from the Houthi missile attack on the Saudi capital's airport that day to 14 killed, with hundreds more people injured.
