Cairo: A 28-year-old Egyptian flight attendant who was preparing to return home for her wedding was among those killed in Saturday's Houthi attack on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, sparking widespread grief in her hometown in Egypt's Beheira governorate.

Azza Ramzi, a flight attendant with Saudi carrier flynas, died from severe injuries sustained while performing her duties at the airport during the attack. Her death has shocked residents of Mahmoudiyah in northern Egypt, particularly the Al-Atf area where her family lives.

The tragedy has drawn widespread sympathy after reports emerged that Ramzi was preparing to travel back to Egypt for her wedding, scheduled to take place within days. Social media platforms in Egypt have been flooded with messages of condolence and tributes to the young flight attendant.

Saturday's attack on King Khalid International Airport killed 12 people, including Ramzi, and injured 309 others, according to Saudi Arabia's General Authority of Civil Aviation. The fatalities included four Saudi citizens, two Bangladeshis, and one national each from Egypt, the United States, Jordan, Syria, Palestine, and Sudan.
