Original Note:
Saudi Arabia does not allow ANY flags during pilgrimage or visits to Mecca. There is no tolerance for politics, brands or advertising. It is a Holy site where people should pray to God and self reflect. They cannot make exceptions to anyone and keep it fair for all. https://haaretz.com/middle-east-news/palestinians/2024-02-29/ty-article/.premium/after-woman-raises-palestinian-flag-saudi-official-says-mecca-is-no-place-for-politics/0000018d-f54a-dd0a-afcf-ffde1bb50000 https://laws.boe.gov.sa/BoeLaws/Laws/LawDetails/03de5462-eda0-4dd6-9efa-a9a700f1f802/1 https://rassd.ma/news-124121
