Attack on Saudi Arabia Dammam Airport Leaves Two Bangladeshi Nationals Injured

An attack was reported at King Fahd International Airport in Dammam, Saudi Arabia. Two Bangladeshi nationals were injured during the incident and were immediately admitted to the Saudi German Hospital in Dammam for medical treatment.

The victims have been identified as Sajal Chandra Das from Cumilla and Mohammad Abdur Rahim from Noakhali. According to the Bangladesh Ministry of Expatriates' Welfare, the individuals fainted due to dense smoke and heat during the attack, but their condition is currently stable with no severe external injuries. Representatives from the Bangladesh Embassy visited the hospital to inquire about their health.

Rising tensions in the Middle East have raised severe security concerns for foreign migrant workers residing in Gulf nations. Just a few days ago, a missile attack at the Riyadh International Airport left two Bangladeshis dead and 24 others injured.

With lakhs of Telugu migrants from Telangana and Andhra Pradesh working across the Gulf region, these repeated attacks have triggered fear among their family members back home. Saudi authorities are providing necessary care to the victims and have launched an investigation into the attack.
