SV M90 belly landing?

According to another forum, an SV MD90 made a belly landing in Tabouk today.
Anyone with any knowledge of this incident?

Going there in the AM tomorrow, will let you know. There was a gear problem either earlier today or yesterday, but I heard they landed safely.

If it did happen I would have expected it to be a major topic of conversation in the local bar...... No one mentioned anything

As per saudi news papers said that their was a problem with the nose gear after one hour of holding the crew wear able to drop the nose gear, the landing was normal.
