The Saudi Ministry of Interior announced a fine of up to 20,000 riyals for holders of any type of visit visa who attempt to enter or remain in Mecca and the holy sites, starting from the first day of Dhu al-Qi'dah until the end of the 14th day of Dhu al-Hijjah, according to the Saudi Press Agency (SPA).

The Ministry indicated that infiltrators of Hajj, including residents and those who have failed to do so, will be deported to their countries and banned from entering the Kingdom for 10 years.

The Ministry called on everyone to adhere to Hajj regulations and instructions, which aim to maintain the security and safety of pilgrims so they can perform their rituals with ease and peace of mind, and to report violators of these regulations and instructions.
