Recent videos claiming to depict overcrowding at Hajj 2026 have been identified as AI-generated and circulated by fake accounts, according to the Saudi account 'The Holy Mosques'. These misleading videos are described as a fabrication designed to insult the intelligence of Muslims. In response to the pilgrimage, Saudi Arabia has implemented extensive safety measures to ensure the comfort and safety of pilgrims. This includes one of the world’s most powerful air conditioning systems to cool the Grand Mosque and other areas equipped with mist sprayers and cooled flooring. Additionally, over 4,500 trained volunteers will assist pilgrims, with plans for more than 20,000 volunteers throughout the season. The UAE has also rolled out a healthcare support system for its nationals, ensuring that all Emirati pilgrims receive mandatory vaccinations before traveling to the holy sites. These measures highlight the commitment to providing a safe and comfortable experience for all participants in the Hajj.
