Several shots were fired at the Saudi embassy in the
Dutch city of The Hague but no one was hurt, police said on
Thursday.
“Just before 6am (0500 GMT) we received a message that a shot
had been fired at a building in The Hague. There were no injuries,”
police said on Twitter.
A number of bullet casings were found at the scene after the
incident, the Dutch news agency ANP quoted police as saying.
Local media said there were 20 bullet holes in the building and
showed pictures of some holes in windows. There was no confirmation
of the number of shots by police.
Officers have sealed off the scene and forensic teams are
conducting an investigation, police said.
The motive for the shooting was not known.
The incident comes a day after a bomb blast struck a World War I
commemoration attended by French and other diplomats in the Saudi
city of Jeddah Wednesday, wounding at least two people.
