Week in Pictures – Saudi Arabia

FILED – 29 July 2020, Saudi Arabia, Mecca: A pilgrim circumvents around the Kaaba, Islam’s holiest shrine, at the centre of the Grand Mosque in the holy city of Mecca, at the start of the annual Muslim Hajj pilgrimage. Due to the global coronavirus pandemic, only a few thousand Muslims are allowed to perform the annual Muslim Hajj pilgrimage this year, an event which would normally draw more than 2 million people from around the world.
