Suicide Bombers hit Three Saudi Arabian Cities in 24 Hours

A wave of suicide bombings hit three Saudi cities over a 24-hour period. The attacks came on the heels of massive jihadi assaults in the Muslim world last week.

The deadliest of the attacks occurred in the holy city of Medina.
So far four persons were confirmed dead, an official told CNN. The city is a major spot in Islam because that’s where Prophet Mohammed is buried.

The bomber, who died in the explosion, targeted security officers, but it is unknown precisely who are those that were killed as at press time.
In Qatif in eastern Saudi, a suicide bomber attempted to launch an attack at a Shiite mosque but killed himself in the process, according to an official.

Near the United States Consulate in Jeddah, a suicide bomber killed only himself after detonating an explosive according to the state-run Saudi Press Agency. Police officers were injured in the attack.

The Saudi Interior Ministry is investigating the daring attacks.
