Saudi security forces killed 10 suspected al-Qaeda militants during raids and shootouts in the past two days, including a gunman who is on the kingdom's most wanted list, the Interior Ministry said today.
A ministry statement read out on state television said three militants were killed on Tuesday and seven yesterday after two suicide car bombs exploded in Riyadh.
The kingdom is battling a 19-month wave of violence by militants linked to Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda network.
