The city's Mohammed Abdulaziz International Airport said "due to the removal of passengers, some flights were delayed" and passengers' luggage has been contacted by carriers for updated schedules.
Schools were also closed in the nearby towns of Rabig and Khulais to ensure the safety of male and female students. The country's children are in the middle of final exams, but schools are closed and King Salman has declared a national holiday following Saudi Arabia's shock victory over Argentina in a World Cup match in Qatar.
