...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more.

jihadist group.

The bombing targeted a security patrol vehicle parked near a cop shoppe in the Kharj area of Riyadh late on Saturday, the ministry said, quoted by the official Saudi Press Agency.

It did not specify the victim's nationality but said two security patrols were damaged.

The Islamic State group said in a statement on Twitter that two bombs were used and "three apostate police vehicles" set ablaze.

IS has claimed previous attacks on Saudi security forces as well as deadly bombings and shootings that targeted the Sunni kingdom's Shiite minority.
