We study charmless hadronic decays of charged $B$ mesons to the final states $K_{S}^{0} K_{S}^{0} K^{\pm}$ and $K_{S}^{0} K_{S}^{0} π^{\pm}$ using a $711 {fb}^{- 1}$ data sample that contains $772 \times 10^{6}$ $B \bar{B}$ pairs and was collected at the $Υ (4 S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^{+} e^{-}$ collider. For $B^{\pm} \to K_{S}^{0} K_{S}^{0} K^{\pm}$ , the measured branching fraction and direct $C P$ asymmetry are $[10.42 \pm 0.43 (stat) \pm 0.22 (syst)] \times 10^{- 6}$ and $[+ 1.6 \pm 3.9 (stat) \pm 0.9 (syst)] %$ , respectively. In the absence of a statistically significant signal for $B^{\pm} \to K_{S}^{0} K_{S}^{0} π^{\pm}$ , we obtain a 90% confidence-level upper limit on its branching fraction as $8.7 \times 10^{- 7}$ .
