In the city of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, there was an explosion in a non-Muslim cemetery during the ceremony to mark the anniversary of the end of the First World War. The event was attended by foreign consuls, Al Jazeera reports, citing a statement from the French Foreign Ministry.
Diplomats from France, Great Britain, Greece, Italy and the United States attended the ceremony.
It is known that a grenade was detonated. Four people were slightly injured.
“The embassies that participated in the ceremony condemn this attack. They ask the Saudi authorities to shed as much light as possible on this attack, as well as to find the culprits,” the French Foreign Ministry said.
