A SERIES of co-ordinated terrorist strikes rocked the heart of Saudi capital Riyadh last night, days after al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden called for more attacks on his homeland. Government buildings were targeted. A bystander was killed by a car bomb near the interior ministry and two suicide car bombers blew themselves up after trying to storm an army recruiting centre. Around the same time, security forces fought a gun battle with terrorists in the north of the city.

Israeli troops have killed five Palestinians after tanks pushed into the southern Gaza Strip in what the army called a raid to root out militants behind mortar and rocket fire on Jewish settlements.

Any Iraqi who voted on January 30 would be an infidel, a voice purporting to be Osama bin Laden's said on a tape broadcast by the Arabic channel Al-Jazeera.

US intelligence officials said the latest tape purporting to be from the al-Qaeda leader was found likely to be genuine after a technical analysis.

The speaker on the tape also praised the Jordanian rebel leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi as an "emir", or prince, of the al-Qaeda organisation in Iraq, saying he was leading the fight against "the Americans and [interim Prime Minister Iyad] Allawi's renegade government".

"The groups affiliated with him are good," the speaker said. "We were pleased with their daring operations."

In the two-minute-long message, the speaker hailed Zarqawi as a "true soldier of God".

"The constitution imposed by the American occupier [Paul] Bremer is blasphemous ... and anyone who takes part in this election consciously and willingly is an infidel," the speaker said.
