Hajj aid for West Bank pilgrims broadens amid crossing closure
Roundup notes 4200 pilgrims from the occupied West Bank traveled to perform Hajj. An additional 1000 invitees from families of Palestinians killed or wounded in Gaza arrived, invited by Saudi King Salman. Most were outside Gaza, mostly in Egypt, before Rafah border shut. Amna Abu Mutlaqq, a 75 year old from Khan Younis, says they were deprived due to the closure and ongoing war.
