Saudi King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz has
died in hospital, state TV says.
The announcement, made early on Friday,
said his brother, Salman, had become king.
Before the announcement, Saudi television
cut to Koranic verses, which often
signifies the death of a senior royal.
King Abdullah, who was said to be aged
about 90, had been in hospital for several
weeks suffering from a lung infection.
Abdullah came to the throne in 2005 but
had suffered frequent bouts of ill health
in recent years.
King Salman, 79, had recently taken on
the ailing monarch's responsibilities.
The late king's half brother Moqren has
been named the new crown prince, the
official statement said.
King Salman called on the royal family's
Allegiance Council to recognise Moqren as
his crown prince and heir.
"His Highness Salman bin Abdulaziz Al
Saud and all members of the family and
the nation mourn the Custodian of the Two
Holy Mosques King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz,
who passed away at exactly 1am this
morning," the statement said.
