Summary
Saudi Arabia's civil aviation authority said Wednesday evening's attack on King Fahd International Airport in Dammam killed one resident and injured eight others.
GACA said the wounded were taken to hospitals and that officials were still assessing material damage at the airport.
The strike was identified in earlier reports as a Houthi attack, extending a run of assaults on Saudi airports and other infrastructure.
The attack adds to pressure from the wider regional conflict, after an earlier drone strike on Saudi Aramco's Shaybah oilfield killed two people.
