Riyadh: Minister of Interior and Chairman of the Supreme Hajj Committee Prince Abdulaziz bin Saud bin Naif bin Abdulaziz visited the Jabal Al-Rahmah shading project site at Arafat, where he inspected the shading structures aimed at reducing heat stress and enhancing the comfort of pilgrims.
According to Saudi Press Agency, the shading project has been developed following the highest technical standards. The shades are constructed using materials that can reflect over 47% of sunlight, which is intended to provide relief from the intense heat experienced by pilgrims during their rituals. The initiative is part of ongoing efforts to improve the Hajj experience for millions of attendees each year.
