FBI documents detail broad probe into possible Saudi-9/11 ties

The FBI released newly declassified documents on Wednesday that explore the scope of its investigation into possible Saudi government ties to the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks.

The documents show that the FBI extensively probed the level of support given to three Saudi nationals - including from a Saudi Embassy official in Washington D.C. - once they landed in the U.S., including "procuring living quarters and assistance with assimilating" in the country.

The investigation also looked into whether the Saudi Embassy employee used his position to help "oversee and direct the facilitation of the hijackers," according to the recently released documents, which show the FBI sought to discern whether or not Saudi Arabian officials had advance knowledge of the attacks.

Previously, the 2004 9/11 Commission Report found little evidence that the Saudi government had been linked to the hijackers.
