WASHINGTON – Twenty-one members of the Saudi military were expelled from the United States (US) after a cadet carried out a mass shooting at the Naval Air Station Pensacola in Florida last month.
The servicemen were not accused of aiding the 21-year old Saudi Air Force lieutenant but US Attorney General William Barr said the cadets were found to have jihadist material and indecent images of children in their possession.
Barr added the 21 cadets were disenrolled and returned home on Monday.
Three sailors were killed and eight wounded in the Dec. 6 attack, authorities said. The gunman was killed by the police in the incident.(BBC)
