Terrorist attack on Saudi oil industry thwarted
http://feeds.bignewsnetwork.com/index.php?sid=375210

Saudi Arabia's Interior Ministry says authorities have disrupted terrorist attack plans targeting the kingdom's oil industry and arrested more than 700 militants in a year long series of raids aimed at al-Qaeda members and supporters.

An official statement broadcast Wednesday from Riyadh says security forces rounded up 701 suspects over the past year.

Some were released later, but Saudi authorities say 520 people, including militants from north Africa, Asia, Afghanistan and Iraq, are still in custody.

The Saudi statement says terrorists were planning car-bomb explosions and attacks on security forces in a campaign to cripple the kingdom's oil industry.
