Latest Saudi Arabia News Update:

37-year-old Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has been named Prime Minister by his father, Saudi Arabia’s 86-year-old king Salman bin Abdulaziz.

Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman becoming the prime minister continues a gradual transfer of power in the world’s largest oil exportating Kingdom.

Already de facto ruler of Saudi Arabia, the appointment formalizes Prince Mohammed as leader of the kingdom’s government. Known by his initials MBS, the crown prince, 37, already oversaw many of Saudi Arabia’s major portfolios, including oil, defense, economic policy and internal security — while his father King Salman bin Abdulaziz remains head of state.

Recall that a Saudi Arabian student at Leeds University, Salma al-Shebab was sentenced to 34 years in prison after she returned from the United kingdom for a holiday in her country.
