Ali Abu Deshish - Ahmed Emam The Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities has begun the repatriation of Egyptian tourism pilgrims following the completion of Hajj rituals for the 1446 Hijri season. Return flights officially commenced Monday from King Abdulaziz International Airport in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. As of now, 28 flights have departed, carrying approximately 2,200 Egyptian pilgrims back home. The return operation will continue over the coming days, with additional flights scheduled from both King Abdulaziz Airport in Jeddah and Prince Mohammad bin Abdulaziz Airport in Madinah. Land returns for pilgrims who traveled by road are also underway. Samia Sami, Assistant Minister for Tourism Companies Affairs, Head of the Official Tourism Hajj Mission, and Chair of the Higher Committee for Hajj and Umrah, stated that a total of 33,172 pilgrims from the tourism sector are expected to return via air this season. She added that tourism companies began transferring pilgrims from Mina to Mecca two days ago in preparation for the Farewell Tawaf, marking the end of their Hajj journey. Return flights are being organized in phases to ensure the safe and orderly return of all pilgrims. Sami praised the high level of organization during this year's tourism Hajj, highlighting the successful implementation of transport and logistics plans for moving pilgrims to the holy sites in accordance with official guidelines. To facilitate the repatriation process, two subcommittees from the tourism Hajj mission have been deployed at the Jeddah and Madinah airports to oversee the return flights and provide necessary support to ensure the comfort and safety of all pilgrims. Meanwhile, other ministry teams stationed across Saudi Arabia continue to monitor the repatriation operations around the clock. They are also following up on the well-being of pilgrims still in Mecca and Madinah as they complete the final stages of their tourism programs before departure. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean

Qatari Hajj Mission serves pilgrims throughout their faith journey
This reflects the mission's commitment to providing continuous support to pilgrims throughout all stages of the rituals, including their safe return home. For his part, Dr Khaled Abdel Hadi, head of the Medical Unit of the Qatari Hajj Mission, said that this year the Unit established a mobile medical ambulance unit (rotating ambulance). This is a unique initiative consisting of mobile ambulance teams that accompany pilgrims as they leave the camps in Mina for the Jamarat. These teams continue to accompany them during the stoning of the small, medium, and large Jamarat and until their return to the camp. This is to ensure the safety of all pilgrims, especially women and the elderly. He added that the medical unit established two fixed ambulance units on the Jamarat Road, equipped with all the necessary medical equipment to handle emergency cases. He noted that the Unit also provided three paramedics equipped with the innovative HT Rescue Jacket, a miniature model of a mobile ambulance. The mobile ambulance contains all the necessary equipment for rapid intervention in emergency situations, with direct communication and connectivity with the two fixed ambulance units, he added. The three paramedics use electric scooters bearing the mission logo while accompanying the campaigns. The Coordination and Follow-up Unit and the Airport monitored the pilgrims' departure from Makkah Al Mukkaramah after completing the Farewell Tawaf, assisting them in facilitating their procedures at King Abdulaziz Airport and the Hajj Airport in Jeddah, in coordination with airlines to ensure smooth and seamless departure procedures. These integrated efforts by the Qatari Hajj Mission and its supporting units convey an implicit message from the Qatari Hajj Mission that the Mission is with the pilgrims throughout their faith journey, wherever they might be, from the time they leave their homeland for the Holy Land, through the performance of their rituals, and until their safe return home after performing the fifth pillar of Hajj.
