<p>Violent clashes have broken out between residents of the holy city of Medina on the day minority Shia Muslims commemorated the death of their most sacred saint, a Saudi security official said.</p>
<p>The official refused to elaborate on the cause of Thursday&#8217;s clashes but said security forces were deployed to disperse the crowds. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorised to speak to the press.</p>
<p>A Shia news website called Rasid reported that hundreds of Sunni hard-liners attacked Shias during the commemorations, known as Ashoura.</p>
<p>The day of mourning marks the killing of the Prophet Mohammed&#8217;s grandson Hussein in the year 680 in present day Iraq.</p>
<p>Shias make up 10% of predominantly Sunni Saudi Arabia and complain of discrimination.</p>
