Oman Shia mosque attackers were Omani citizens: police
The three gunmen who shot and killed six people at a Shia Muslim mosque in Oman in an attack claimed by the banned militant Islamic State (IS) group this week were all Omani nationals, police said on Thursday.
The assault began on Monday evening at the Ali bin Abi Talib mosque in the Wadi al-Kabir neighbourhood of Oman’s capital Muscat as Shia Muslims gathered.
The Royal Oman Police said the three gunmen were brothers and “were killed due to their insistence on resisting security personnel”.
