The New Indian Express reported that operations were scheduled to resume at two terminals on Sunday, October 25, 2026. The publication separately reported that flights resumed after a two-week closure linked to Houthi attacks.

The Hindu reported that the Yemeni Armed Forces warned airlines, airport staff and travelers against using King Khalid airport, describing it as a military target for their forces.
