Saudi Arabia is proceeding with the annual Hajj pilgrimage despite regional conflict and travel advisories from Western nations. The event, expected to draw 1.5 million pilgrims, faces logistical challenges exacerbated by the ongoing war with Iran, though experts deem a direct attack on Hajj unlikely. Concerns remain about accidental incidents and the economic impact on pilgrims.
