RIYADH: The Ministry of Interior has completed departure procedures for Iranian Hajj pilgrims leaving through the Jadidat Arar border crossing in the Northern Borders region.

This was done following directives from King Salman and based on a recommendation from Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the Saudi Press Agency reported on Wednesday. 

The aim was to support Iran’s pilgrims amid the current circumstances in their country and provide necessary services until they can safely return home after completing Hajj. 

The ministry, through its sectors and affiliated entities, deployed all human and technical resources to facilitate the pilgrims’ movement, the SPA reported. 

It coordinated with relevant authorities to ensure smooth and organized transport to the border within an integrated service and security framework.

Alireza Bayat, head of the Hajj and Pilgrimage Organization in Iran, recently praised ÂÜÀòÊÓÆµ for assisting the pilgrims, noting the quality organization and services at border crossings and other locations. 

He said Iran’s pilgrims were satisfied with the support they had received and for the excellent organization of the Hajj.
