Saudi Arabia has deployed air defense missile systems around Mecca ahead of the Hajj pilgrimage.
Axar.az reports that this was stated by the Ministry of Defense in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on its official X account.
"As part of the Ministry of Defense’s integrated readiness system, the Air Defense Forces are responsible for protecting the airspace over the holy sites and dealing with all aerial threats, ensuring the safety and reassurance of the guests of God (pilgrims)," the statement reads.
It should be noted that the Hajj pilgrimage officially begins today.
