Al-Qaida threatens more attacks
The armed group [al-Qaeda] has claimed responsibility for the bombing that killed 18 people in Riyadh, warning the next targets will be in the Gulf, the US and Iraq. Al-Qaida's claim comes shortly after several people were detained in Saudi Arabia on Tuesday for suspected involvement in the blast.

According to a Saudi weekly published in London, al-Majalla, "al-Qaida has claimed responsibility for the bomb attacks on al-Muhaya in Riyadh this past Saturday. It said in an e-mail message received by one of our correspondents in Dubai that the next strikes will be in the Gulf, America and Iraq". The message was sent by an al-Qaida member, Abu Muhammad al-Ablaj, who is in regular contact with the publication. Al-Ablaj warned those "who work and live with Americans", adding that "their killing was permitted" according to religious edicts.
