The Saudi Interior Ministry announced Monday it has intercepted an ISIS cell during four simultaneous operations in the Saudi capital Riyadh and the eastern city of Dammam, Al Arabiya News Channel reported on Monday.
The statement said the two suspects killed in the raids, which took place 12 days ago, had fired on security forces. He had previously been repatriated from Iraq and imprisoned for five years.
Over the last few months, ISIS carried out several attacks on mosques in the kingdom which killed dozens of people.
Devices along with money and pistols, said to be seized by Saudi security forces after arresting suspected Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) militants, are seen in this handout photo provided by the Saudi Press Agency (SPA), on September 28, 2015.
The ministry confirmed the uncovered terrorist cell was affiliated with an ISIL suicide bomber responsible for an August explosion at a mosque in the southwestern Saudi city of Abha, which killed at least 15 people. It was the deadliest attack on the kingdom’s security forces in years.
