IYADH, Saudi Arabia — Saudi state television reports a Saudi prince who was slightly injured by a suicide bomber says he is more determined than ever to pursue the kingdom’s campaign against terrorism.

The prince was targeted by a suicide bomber late Thursday during a gathering of well-wishers for the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
It was the first known assassination attempt against a member of the royal family since Saudi Arabia began its crackdown on al-Qaida affiliated militants following the Sept. 11 terror attacks.
The Interior Ministry has spearheaded the kingdom’s crackdown.
