Saudi Arabia rejects US 'interference' over Khashoggi case

Saudi Arabia has issued an unusually strong rebuke of the US senate, rejecting a bipartisan resolution that blamed Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman over the killing of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi and describing it as an interference in the kingdom's affairs.

The unusually strong rebuke of the US senate is the latest sign of how the relationship between the royal court and America has deteriorated, more than two months after Mr Khashoggi was killed and dismembered by Saudi agents inside the kingdom's consulate in Istanbul.
