SAUDI AUTHORITIES EXPERIMENTS SELF-STERILIZATION GATES AT THE HOLY MOSQUE IN MECCA

Authorities at the Masjid Al Haram (Holy Mosque) in Mecca are experimenting an ‘advanced self-sterilization’ gate at the haram. If the experiment is successful, it will be deployed to various parts of the Holy Mosque.

This was stated in a tweet from the official handle of the Two Holy Mosques @Haramaininfo.

Analysts however have queried the appropriateness of the move that it may not be able to check the spread of the virus among worshippers at the Holy Mosque even if fully deployed.
