Dr. Abdel-Fattah Mashat, Saudi Arabia’s Deputy Minister of Hajj and Umrah, said the Kingdom would provide tents to isolate pilgrims infected with the Covid-19 during the upcoming Hajj.

In an interview with Asharq Al-Awsat, Mashat noted that the relevant service provider companies would allocate a specific percentage of tents for isolation procedures, stressing that immediate penalties would be imposed for any shortage, including direct compensation for the pilgrims who were not provided with the requested services.
