Saudi Arabia Says Three Security Personnel Were Wounded When Wanted Terrorist Blew Himself Up

The official insignia of the Presidency of State Security.

On August 12, Saudi Arabia’s Presidency of State Security (PSS) announced that one of nine terrorists wanted for attacking a mosque for special emergency forces in the southwestern ‘Asir province in 2015 had been killed.

In a statement, a spokesman for the PSS said that the terrorist, Abdullah bin Zayed Abdulrahman al-Bakri al-Shehri, detonated a suicide vest he was wearing when security forces attempted to apprehend him in the al-Samer district in the province of Jeddah on August 10.

Al-Shehri died at the scene, while a Pakistani resident and three security personnel with various injuries were taken to hospital to receive the necessary treatment.

“The Presidency of the State Security reiterates its determination to continue confronting whoever attempts to tamper the stability of citizens and expatriates on the territories of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia,” the PSS said in its statement.

The nine wanted terrorists were reportedly behind an attack that targeted worshipers at the Special Emergency Forces Command Mosque in ‘Asir on 6 August 2015. The attack killed 11 security personnel and four Bangladeshi workers and wounded 33 other people. ISIS’s so-called Hijaz Province claimed responsibility for the attack, back then.

Al-Shehri was the seventh terrorist from the list to be killed by Saudi Security forces. Saeed Aaidh a-Dair al-Shahrani, Taya Salem Eslam al-Saiari, Mutee Salem Islaam al-Saiari, Abdulaziz Ahmed Mohammed al-Bakri al-Shehri, Mohammed Suleiman Rahyan al-Saqri al-Anzi and Mubarak Abdullah Fahad al-Dosari were all eliminated between 2016 and 2017. Aqab Moajab Fazaan al-Otaibi was also arrested in 2016.

Now, only one of the terrorists wanted for the deadly attack on ‘Asir mosque, Majid bin Zayed al-Bakri al-Shehri, is still at large.

ISIS is not currently active in Saudi Arabia. However, it is still present there. The exact extend of the terrorist group’s influence in the Kingdom remains unknown.

The Saudis were in 2011, and possibly still are, freeing Saudi killers who agreed to become ISIS proxies in Iraq and Syria etc.

There is the house of Saud and there is Wahhabism. ISIL/Al-Qaeda/other hard-core Sunnis, do read and follow Wahhabism and KSA funds them as much as they can, we saw them & (Qatar) doing that in Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan.

Taliban = Hard-core Sunnis that left Afghanistan during SU take over of Afghanistan to Pakistan and KSA funded/made these “Religious schools” for them.

It is funny but a lot of people don’t know that Osama bin Laden was from a very rich Saudi family.

The Middle East is rich and big countries love weak countries that are rich. They plan this out a long time ago – 1st the BS Arab Spring which was followed by death. 2nd West support from “Freedom fighters” A.K.A Hard-core Sunnis who follow Wahhabism and later called themselves ISIL/Daesh. 3rd West sanctions on Middle Eastern countries, they blamed them for a lot of BS reasons. All that to weaken Middle Eastern countries. You just need to ask yourself which countries benefit from that, surely not NATO/Anglo-Zion satanic fuks. It failed thanks to Iran, Russia, Iraqis, Syrians, Hezbollah, and some countries with brains.

The West is becoming poorer and poorer – for a sec just imagine the EU without Germany – they would start killing each other like animals. Russia’s special operation in Ukraine shows how weak the West is and god China is laughing their ass off. This is only getting worse by the day.
