Saudi Forces Surround Suspected Militants in Jeddah

沙特部队在吉达包围激进分子嫌疑人

Saudi Arabia's Interior Ministry says security forces have exchanged gunfire with suspected militants in the Red Sea port city of Jeddah.

The ministry says the suspects ran into an apartment building and began shooting at the police officers chasing them. The officers shot back, and have surrounded the building.

It is not immediately clear how many men are in the group, or whether they are on Saudi Arabia's list of people wanted on terrorism charges.

沙特阿拉伯内政部说，安全部队跟激进分子嫌疑人在红海港口城市吉达交火。

内政部说，嫌疑人冲进一座公寓大楼，并对追捕他们的警察开枪射击。警察反击，并包围了这座大楼。

目前还不清楚这群嫌疑人有多少人，也不知道他们是否列在沙特阿拉伯的恐怖份子通缉名单上。
