Terrorists responsible for a killing spree in Al-Ahsa on Monday brutally murdered a citizen for his car to carry out their operations.

Security authorities confirmed that the terrorists had killed 30-year-old citizen Adel Hraba in the village of Al-Mansoura. The terrorists had seized the stolen car at gunpoint in the village, which is near the crime scene, while Hraba was still inside the car.

After carrying out the operation, they drove to Al-Mazawi village, a few kilometers away, where they shot Hraba in the head and poured acid over his body. Security officers identified the body on Wednesday morning.

Surveillance camera installed above a house near the Women’s Council of Al-Hosseinia assisted the police in identifying one of the three vehicles used by the attackers, who were all bearded and unmasked.

Terror victims include five children aged 9 to 16.

Five people were wounded in the incident, four of whom are teenagers aged 13 to 17.

Al-Ahsa Gov. Prince Badr bin Mohammed bin Jelawi visited the injured at King Fahd Hospital in Al-Hofuf on Tuesday.

He said Al-Ahsa would remain united in its fight against terrorists in the community.

He described the incident as a despicable criminal act of terrorism.

Meanwhile, many citizens visited King Fahd Hospital to donate blood for the victims of terrorism. The bodies of the deceased will only be released once investigations are complete.
