A massive fire burned for more than 12 hours in the Saudi capital, Riyadh, according to satellite imagery, amid reports of aerial interceptions and the rerouting of flights over the city.
Satellite data revealed the scale and duration of the blaze, which continued to burn through the night. Reports also emerged of interceptions in the airspace above the capital, alongside the diversion of flights away from Riyadh during the incident.
Authorities have not yet issued an official statement on the cause of the fire or confirmed details surrounding the reported aerial activity and flight diversions.
The incident has drawn attention given its prolonged duration and the unusual airspace activity reported over the Saudi capital, though the full circumstances remain unclear.
