The claim
Video shows an airstrike on Riyadh Airport in Saudi Arabia.
Original review summary
The video does not show an airstrike on Riyadh Airport: the review identifies it as footage of a fire at Moscow’s Sadovod market after a drone strike on 18 June 2026. The review says a separate fire broke out near King Khalid International Airport on 19 September 2026, but the viral video was unrelated to that incident.[S1]
