Explosions rock Riyadh; Saudi civil defense lifts alert after threat

Multiple explosions were reported in Riyadh, prompting Saudi Arabia's General Directorate of Civil Defense to issue a threat alert to residents, which was later lifted. The cause and target of the explosions remain unconfirmed, and it is unclear whether this was an attack, an accident, or a military exercise. The incident's significance depends on attribution, as a confirmed militant strike on the capital would mark a major escalation in regional security.
