Riyadh compound bombings

Okay, imagine you're playing in your backyard with your toys and suddenly there is a very loud and scary noise. That's what happened in Riyadh, which is a big city in Saudi Arabia, in 2003. Some very bad people put bombs in some buildings where a lot of people lived together in a big place called a "compound".

This was a very bad thing because innocent people got hurt and some even died. It's important to remember that hurting people is never okay, and we need to work together to make sure everyone is safe.
