World War II Update: British Airways Suspends Service to Saudi Arabia

British Airways on Wednesday suspended flights to Saudi Arabia due to heightened security concerns.

Britain's Department for Transport said it had received "credible intelligence of a serious threat to U.K. aviation interests in Saudi Arabia." It did not elaborate.

The announcement came two days after Saudi officials said they broke up a terror cell plotting an attack on a British target in the kingdom.
