    Pilgrims begin downsized Hajj amid pandemic

    As many as 10,000 Muslim pilgrims residing in Saudi Arabia began the five-day annual Hajj pilgrimage on Tuesday amid safety protocols due to the coronavirus pandemic.

    This year only up to 10,000 people already residing in the kingdom will participate in the ritual, a tiny fraction of the 2.5 million pilgrims from around the world that attended last year.
