KHOBAR, SAUDI ARABIA: A TV grab taken from official Saudi television shows blood stains at the entrance of a building at one of the sites of triple attacks targeting oil facilities by suspected Islamist militants in the eastern oil city of al-Khobar 29 May 2004. An American citizen was among several people killed in the attacks, a US embassy spokesman in Riyadh said. Residents of the area and diplomatic sources earlier said that the militants had shot dead at least four Westerners, two Saudi guards and an Egyptian boy and seized hostages in the triple attacks. The assault, the latest in a wave of terror to hit Saudi Arabia over the past year, was claimed by the Al-Qaeda network of Saudi-born Osama bin Laden, although the authenticity of the claim could not be independently confirmed.

The first Brazilian troop contingent arrives at Tabarre international airport in Haiti, May 29, 2004. Brazilian troops will lead the operation that takes over from a 3,600-strong interim force led by the United States from June 1. The U.S.-led force entered Haiti in February after a revolt killed more than 200 people and forced the removal of former President Jean-Bertrand Aristide. Brazil is prepared to keep its 1,200 troops in Haiti in command of a U.N. peacekeeping force for longer than the six months approved by the United Nations (news - web sites) to restore stability, but not indefinitely, its defense minister said. *******/Daniel
