An Asian expatriate was killed in a horrific accident on the highway linking Al-Jubail and Al-Dammam in the Eastern province.
The man burned to death when a heavy truck collided with oil tanker loaded with 42,000 litres of fuel.
The accident happened at the entrance to a petrol station, 20 kilometres from the industrial city of Al-Jubail, said Civil Defence media spokesperson Brigadier Mansour Al-Dosary.
