During a public event with the participation of European diplomats, an explosion occurred near the monument to the First World War in Saudi Arabia.
Aljazeera informs about it.
For example, at an event scheduled to coincide with the end of World War I at a cemetery in Jeddah, which was organized by the French embassy, an explosion occurred, as a result of which two people were injured, authorities say. Among the injured are a Greek consular officer and a local policeman.
Alternative sources claim that four people were injured, including citizens of Greece and the United Kingdom.
The embassies of the countries whose citizens suffered the blast have pledged to help Saudi Arabia investigate the incident.
“The embassies of France, Greece, Italy, Great Britain and the United States, which were invited to the ceremony, strongly condemn this cowardly attack. Such attacks on innocent people are shameful and have no justification,” said the diplomatic mission.
Images from the scene were posted on Twitter by French journalist Clarence Rodríguez, who works in Saudi Arabia.

It should be recalled that the capital of the Republic of Nagorno-Karabakh, Stepanakert, was left without power as a result of the bombing and several explosions broke out.
As reported by “Strana”, an oxygen cabin exploded at Chelyabinsk City Hospital No. 2, for which more than 150 people had to be evacuated.
