Saudi Arabia said 12 people were killed and 309 were injured Saturday in an attack on the Riyadh airport, the deadliest incident in an intensifying conflict with Yemen’s Houthis. Saudi civil aviation authorities said that airport operations were suspended temporarily while the damage was being assessed. Some of the injured were in critical condition. The US warned its citizens to avoid the airport in the Saudi capital. One of the people killed was an American, according to Saudi Arabia. The UK described the latest incident as “serious” and airlines including Kuwait’s national carrier scrapped flights.

Also this weekend, President Donald Trump demanded that Volodymyr Zelenskyy halt attacks on Russian oil refineries and suggested he should consider stepping aside as Ukraine’s president, escalating a fight centered on securing more diesel supplies for the US ahead of the midterm elections. “I think it’s time for Ukraine to get a new president,” Trump told reporters at the White House on Saturday as he unleashed an angry critique of Zelenskyy, saying Ukraine needs a leader “who can make a deal” with Russia.

On today's show, Bloomberg This Weekend hosts David Gura and Christina Ruffini speak with:

- Abeer Abu Omar, Bloomberg News Middle East Correspondent on the Riyadh airport incident, and Alex Kokcharov, Bloomberg Economics Geoeconomics Analyst on President Trump's statement that "it's time for Ukraine to get a new president."

- Herman Chan, Bloomberg Intelligence Senior US Banks Analyst on what to expect when Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, and Citi report earnings this week, and BMO Capital Market Senior Economist Jennifer Lee on what's ahead for CPI, PPI, and retail sales.

- Shawn Donnan, Bloomberg News, Senior Economics Writer, on why populists are losing their war on globalization.

Plus, David, Christina, and Lisa Mateo share the stories they've 'Bookmarked' this week.
