‘We feel safe here,’ Saudi residents say as US-Iran conflict escalates

Residents in Saudi Arabia said they feel safe in the Kingdom on Sunday (March 1), following attacks from Israel and the US on Iran, which retaliated with attacks on Israel and nearby US targets in Arab Gulf cities.

Iranian leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei died in the attacks which began on Saturday, state media reported.

Witnesses reported blasts in the Dubai area and over Doha for a second day on Sunday.

Iran's retaliation for US-Israeli strikes forced major regional airports, including Dubai, to shut amid one of the worst instances of aviation disruption in years.
