Saudis seize 'terror' missiles
Saudi authorities say they have seized a lorry-load of surface-to-air missiles destined for an unnamed terrorist group.
The consignment was intercepted last month on a desert road near the port city of Jeddah.
Police say the weapons - capable of being used to bring down aircraft - had been smuggled from Yemen.
Last month, air travellers from the United States and Britain were alerted to the possibility of attack if they went to Saudi Arabia.
The alerts came after intelligence reports were relayed to Washington and London by the Saudis of a specific threat to British airlines flying in or out of Riyadh international airport.
And British Airways, one of the world's biggest airlines, suspended all flights to Saudi Arabia until further notice.
The airline says it has had good co-operation from the Saudi authorities and hopes to resume flights soon.
The Americans are particularly sensitive to threats in Saudi Arabia following the suicide car bombings on 12 May on residential blocks housing Americans and other foreigners.
More than 30 people were killed and nearly 100 injured in the blasts.
Since then, Saudi authorities have cracked down on Islamist groups with suspected links to Osama Bin Laden's al-Qaeda network, arresting scores of suspects.
The BBC's security correspondent Frank Gardner says the Saudis have been proactive in their efforts, sometimes overreacting.
They find themselves dealing with a lethal cocktail - the country is near Yemen where weapons are easily available and the presence in Saudi Arabia of extremists who are ready to use them against Western targets, our correspondent says.
