A Saudi soldier was killed and five others were wounded fighting suspected militants in the Kingdom's Qatif province, the interior ministry said on Tuesday, days after a child and a Pakistani builder were killed in the same town of Al Awamiya.
The soldier was killed by a rocket-propelled grenade in a district of Al Awamiya and operations to counter the militants continued with the help of back-up forces, the ministry said.
On May 12, authorities said gunmen killed a Saudi child and a Pakistani man during an attack on workers at a building project in Al Awamiya.
In Tuesday's statement, the Ministry said "terrorist elements" were using explosive devices and landmines to obstruct the building project.
