Saudi lockdown relaxation?
Curfew to continue in Mecca till 20th June. After that prayers might resume. But not Umrah.
There goes my dream of "maybe there's a little bit of chance of Hajj taking place this year" -- down the drain.
And what about the other millions of small mosques in the country? No news yet on when those will open.
Note that 9 died in KSA yesterday and 2000+ new infected on that day. So things aren't really better now compared to when they shutdown the whole country.
How are they defending their steps now? By saying, "People were not aware of the danger then, but they are now." Good. If all these drama is worth this little change.

- Shall be waiting to watch what they mean now by "opening" mosques. Obviously it means different thing to different people now. :-)
