S Arabia considers barring overseas haj pilgrims for 2nd year
Mehr News - May 6th, 2021
Reuters quoted two Saudi sources familiar with the matter as saying that the Saudi government was considering barring foreign pilgrims for the second year in a row for fear of the spread of the Coronavirus.
Such a move would restrict the pilgrimage to Mecca to Saudi nationals and residents of the kingdom who were vaccinated or have recovered from COVID-19 at least months prior to attending.
While discussions about a possible ban have taken place, there has been no final decision on whether to pursue it, the sources said.
