Saudi Arabia Recommends Citizens Leave Lebanon

Al Qaeda linked group took responsibility

|

Saudi Arabia is urging its citizens to leave Lebanon and exercise caution following this week's deadly bombing at the Iranian Embassy and deepening tensions with Lebanon's Hezbollah militants.

Shiite-led Hezbollah has indirectly blamed Sunni-ruled Saudi Arabia for Tuesday's twin suicide blasts, which killed 23 people. A Sunni radical group linked to al-Qaeda has claimed responsibility.
