Saudi authorities will soon begin to separate for Hajj 2020.

The “Hajj” 2020 will take place, but just for pilgrims of all nationalities resident in the country. This is what the Saudi authorities have just announced.
lobservateur.info asked the question two days ago about the possibility of maintaining the pilgrimage. The answer has just fallen. The Saudi authorities have just decided to revive the great pilgrimage for this year. However, they specify their intention to drastically reduce the number of pilgrims. Only residents in the country, of all nationalities, can do it.
The authorities of Medina, the first concerned by the pilgrimage, insisted on the particular attention that they will pay to health measures to avoid the risk of spread of the new coronavirus.
As a reminder, Saudi Arabia totals more than 161,000 cases of Covid-19 contamination. The death toll from the pandemic has reached 1,307 and the country still has 2,045 cases of serious infection. This situation has not prevented the Sauodians from reopening the mosques in Mecca since yesterday, Sunday June 21, 2020. The businesses have also resumed their activities.
