Un vídeo de Reuters sobre rutas de viaje, no sobre gente que huye
✕ La afirmación
“People are running away from Saudi Arabia,” shared with a Reuters video clip.✓ Los hechos
The Reuters clip is about travel routes, not people fleeing. With Riyadh's airport closed after Houthi strikes until 17 October and about 46% of departures from Saudi Arabia cancelled (Cirium data), many travellers drove to airports in Bahrain, Qatar and the UAE to fly.
Lo que aún no sabemos
How many of these travellers were residents leaving for good. No source has measured this.
