Pilgrims from across Saudi Arabia have started arriving in Makkah to perform the Hajj pilgrimage – the second to be held during the pandemic.
Last month, Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Hajj and Umrah confirmed that attendance to the Hajj pilgrimage for 2021 will be restricted only to 60,000 Saudi residents and citizens due to the pandemic. Those wishing to perform Hajj must also be free from chronic diseases, be between the age of 18-65 and should be vaccinated.
