Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud issued on Tuesday a directive to name the airport road in Madinah after Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Crown Prince and Prime Minister.

The newly named Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Road connects the Prophet’s Mosque to King Salman bin Abdulaziz Road, which leads to Prince Mohammad bin Abdulaziz International Airport and the Royal Terminal, passing through Rua Al Madinah, the largest hospitality project in the world.

Governor of the Madinah Region and Al Madinah Region Development Authority Board Chairman Prince Salman bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz extended his sincere gratitude the Saudi leadership. He praised Crown Prince Mohammed’s pioneering role in launching national development initiatives and strategic projects that have had a tangible impact across all regions of the Kingdom, including Madinah.

The Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Road is a strategic artery in Madinah. Spanning 13 kilometers, it intersects with key main roads, including King Faisal bin Abdulaziz Road (First Ring Road), King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Road (Second Ring Road), and King Khalid bin Abdulaziz Road (Third Ring Road).

Several major development projects are underway along the newly named route, implemented by the Madinah Municipality and Al Madinah Region Development Authority.

Among the most notable is the "Madinah Humanization Program," which focuses on improving vehicle and pedestrian pathways and building facades, aligning with the design guidelines for Saudi architecture to support quality of life and urban landscape enhancement.

The road also boasts the environmental rehabilitation project for Wadi Qanat, one of the region’s most significant historic valleys.

Kuwait's foreign ministry issued on Sunday a circular indicating that it had listed eight hospitals in Lebanon as part of regulations related to "combating terrorism.”

Lebanon's health ministry expressed surprise and said it would seek clarification.

It said it received the Kuwaiti statement "with great surprise", adding it had not been provided with "any information or notification from any Kuwaiti entity about this matter.”

"The hospitals mentioned in the statement are registered with the syndicate of private hospitals in Lebanon and carry out their role in providing treatment and health services to all Lebanese without exception," the ministry statement said.

It called the facilities "an essential part of the Lebanese health system,” and said it would contact the relevant authorities to request clarification and "protect Lebanon's health system.”

It noted that "Kuwait has numerous joint projects with the ministry... and has been among the most prominent countries that have stood by the health system during the successive crises that Lebanon has faced.”

The latest move was "unprecedented and inconsistent" with the Gulf country's usual approach, it added.
