Authorities apprehended seven individuals across various governorates of the kingdom for discharging firearms in a celebratory manner, following the announcement of Tawjihi results by the Ministry of Education earlier today.

The weapons used in these incidents have been seized, and efforts are ongoing to track down additional suspects, according to a statement from the Public Security Directorate (PSD).

The PSD also reported 210 vehicles were cited for violations across multiple governorates, with plans to impound all offending vehicles and take legal and administrative actions against their owners.

These measures were carried out through the deployment of both civilian and military patrols, as well as responding to reports and complaints received through designated contact numbers.

The directorate thanked those who contributed to maintaining security and reporting violations and affirmed its commitment to taking stringent measures against all offenders.
