King Fahd bin Abdulaziz of
Saudi Arabia has been secretly
flown out of the kingdom to his
palace in Geneva, Switzerland,
reports the private
intelligence service DEBKAfile
based on Persian Gulf and
Middle East sources.

The royal mobile hospital
fitted aboard Boeing 757
HZ-HMED landed in the private
VIP section of the Geneva
airport Wednesday afternoon,
Sept. 19. A palace conclave led
by Crown Prince Abdullah, who
effectively rules the kingdom,
decided to remove the
chronically ailing monarch to
safety, fearing he might be
stranded in the middle of a
military crisis arising from
the impending U.S. offensive
against international
terrorism.

The royal hospital plane was
accompanied by another craft of
the royal flight carrying the
king’s family and entourage.

Riyadh is reportedly concerned
about the possibility of a
major terrorist attack on the
royal palaces being sparked by
the outbreak of hostilities in
Afghanistan or elsewhere, as
the U.S. prepares for a major
offensive against the forces of
Islamic terrorist Osama bin
Laden.

A group of princes was
therefore carried to a safe
place in the additional fleet
of 10 royal aircraft that
ferried members of the Saudi
royal family to Geneva. More
than a dozen Mercedeses waited
on the tarmac of Geneva
International Airport to
collect the royal arrivals.

The Saudi royal airlift, which
began Tuesday night, is still
in progress, according to
DEBKA's sources. Two more
private royal planes are
expected in the VIP section of
Geneva airport tomorrow.

The Saudi royal family has long
been concerned about the rise
of Islamic radicalism within
its own kingdom.
