Etihad Airways says it has canceled flights between Abu Dhabi and Saudi Arabia’s Riyadh, Jeddah and Dammam due to “regional disruption,” as Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthi group continues to carry out attacks on the Saudi kingdom.

All flights between Abu Dhabi and Riyadh have been canceled until October 19, it says.
