Saudi authorities arrest female pilgrim for raising Palestinian flag

MEECA, Feb. 24 (YPA) – Saudi security authorities arrested a female pilgrim from inside the Grand Mosque in Mecca for raising the Palestinian flag.

The arrest of the woman from the Mataf (circumambulation) area in the Grand Mosque has been met with strong criticism from activists on social media.

Some consider the arrest as an act of suppressing any interaction or reminder of the Palestinian cause by the Saudi authorities.

The Saudi authorities’ activities against the Palestinian cause have notably increased during the genocidal massacres committed by the Zionist killing machine against the Palestinian people in Gaza.

It’s worth noting that the propaganda spread by Saudi activists associated with the royal palace exhibits a hostile attitude towards the Palestinian people and resistance.

The Saudi authorities have previously arrested several pilgrims for advocating for Palestine in Mecca.

Meanwhile, Zionist journalists and rabbis have been seen inside Mecca and Medina.
