The Mecca raid took place after hours of police chase when the suspected terrorists took a shelter at a house usually rented by road travellers.

The ministry announced last week the foiling of a terror attack that targeted an area in Asir region in the southwest of Saudi Arabia, in which the police killed two suspected terrorists and confiscated two cars as one of them was planted with explosives.

Saudi Arabia has reported many deadly attacks orchestrated by the IS through its sleeping cells in the country.
