Saudi Minister of Health Fahd bin Abdurrahman Al-Jalajel carried out on Tuesday several comprehensive inspection tours to review health system services at the holy sites in Makkah ahead of the Hajj.

He visited the Makkah Health Cluster, healthcare facilities in Arafat and Mina in Makkah, and the headquarters of the Saudi Red Crescent Authority.
