Madinha, Jul 5: The security forces of Saudi Arabia have proved their competency, dedication and commitment by sacrificing their own lives to foil the plot of dreaded terrorists in the Islamic kingdom. In two separate incidents on Monday, the security forces prevented the suicide bombers from entering the Prophet's Mosque in Madinah and US consulate in Jeddah.

At least four Saudi security force members were killed and five wounded, when a suicide bomber, who was prevented from entering the Prophet's Mosque, Al-Haram Al-Nabawi, regarded as one of Islam's holiest sites, blew himself up.

“With Maghreb prayer drawing near on Monday in Madinah, security men suspected a man who was walking towards the Prophet's Mosque across an open area that is being used as a parking lot for visitors. When they tried to stop him, he blew himself up resulting in his death and the martyrdom of four security men. Meanwhile, five other security men were injured. May they recover quickly,”said Maj. Gen. Mansour Al-Turki, security spokesman of the Ministry of Interior.

Al Arabiya News Channel's correspondent said the suicide bombing took place near a security building parking lot between the city courtyard and the mosque, visited by millions every year.

The attack took place during Maghreb prayers, the time when Muslims break their fast during the holy month of Ramadan. The channel showed images of fire raging in a parking lot with at least one body seen nearby. The suicide bomber also died in the attack.

Before that at 2:15 a.m., a suicide bomber blew himself up near the US Consulate in Jeddah. Security officers endangered their lives and confronted him as he moved suspiciously at a parking lot of the Dr. Soliman Fakeih Hospital. It is learnt that the bomber's intention was to barge into the Consulate and kill maximum people. At least two policemen were wounded lightly in the attack.

Udupi, May 16: Close on the heels of six Covid-19 cases being detected in a little over 24 hours, Udupi recorded its first death of a Covid-19 patient. The victim is a 54-year-old man from Mumbai, who died due to a heart attack on Thursday. His reports came back on Saturday, and confirmed that he had Covid-19. The Udupi district administration has arranged to carry out his last rites as per government designated guidelines for Covid-19 victims.

A medical bulletin issued by the superintendent of Kasturba Hospital, Manipal, stated that the patient was admitted due to a heart-related issue on May 13.

Some members on the team that treated the patient have been quarantined. The hospital’s emergency department will operate as usual, and the outpatient department will operate as usual from 8.30am to 1pm, following government guidelines, the bulletin said. Deputy commissioner G Jagadeesha said that since the patient was from Mumbai, the authorities collected his swab sample for testing, as a precautionary measure.

The man suffered from chest pain, and was initially taken to the taluk hospital at Kundapur from where he was shifted to Kasturba Hospital, due to the seriousness of his condition. The doctors operated on him on May 13, and he suffered a severe heart attack on May 14 and died, the DC said. “Three hospital staff without PPE kits, who attended to the patient, have been quarantined,” the DC said, adding that the operating doctors and nurses had worn PPE kits.

In addition, 5 others who travelled with the person from Mumbai and 57 people with him at the Kundapur isolation centre, have been designated as primary contacts, and 38 others as secondary contacts, and quarantined. The staff at Kundapur taluk hospital too had taken precautions in handling the patient, the DC said. Udupi presently has six active cases, including a 1-year-old child and 5 others, all of whom returned from Dubai on May 12.
