MAKKAH — The Presidency for the Affairs of the Two Holy Mosques provides a healthy and safe environment that helps worshippers to perform their rituals, as the entire Grand Mosque is disinfected, sterilized 10 times per day with the participation of more than 4,000 workers.

The Presidency uses 130,000 liters of disinfectants and approximately 35,000 liters of sterilization products to sterilize all surfaces and carpets. Additionally, the Grand Mosque was furnished with 25,000 carpets.

As many as 11 smart robots are also used to sterilize the Grand Mosque.

The Presidency seeks to harness artificial intelligence and interactive screens to serve the worshipers and Umrah performers. —SPA
