Saudi authorities on Wednesday carried out the 99th execution of the year, putting a man to death for murder.
Hassan bin Mubarak Al Amri was convicted of stabbing to death fellow Saudi Jahran Al Issa following a dispute, the interior ministry said in a statement carried by the SPA state news agency.
He was executed in the southwestern coastal city of Qunfudah, it said.
Saudi Arabia imposes the death penalty for offences including murder, drug trafficking, armed robbery, rape and apostasy.
There were no beheadings during the holy month of Ramadan.
However, executions resumed on Sunday when authorities put a Saudi murderer to death.
Murder and drug trafficking cases account for the majority of Saudi executions.
