An Indian national has been killed in an attack at Saudi Arabia’s international airport, the Indian Embassy said on Sunday (October 11, 2026), a day after the attack that killed 12 people.

AIMIM president Asaduddin Owaisi confirmed that Mohammad Yousuf Ali died in the Riyadh Airport attack and his wife and two kids have suffered injuries.

“It’s been confirmed that Yousuf sahab has passed away in the attack. Innalilahi wa inna ilahir rajioon. His son is undergoing knee surgery, another son is in the hospital and 3 of his toes have been cut off. His daughter and wife are safe. His aunt (chachi) was with them, and suffered injuries to the head but is out of danger. I am in touch with Yousuf’s brother-in-law in Riyadh and the DCM has assured me that they’re taking care,” Mr. Owaisi said in an X post.
