Saudi security foiled a major atack by two suicide bombers at the huge Abqaiq oil facility today. Top News | Reuters.co.ca
The two cars exploded at the gates. This is the first major attack since al-Qaeda launched attacks aimed at toppling Saudi Arabia's monarchy in 2003.
One car was carrying gunmen and two others, packed with explosives, rammed into the gates.
Oil prices shot up $2 a barrel on news of the attack. Dubai-based Al Arabiya television said the attackers used cars carrying the logo of Saudi state-owned oil company Aramco.
