RESTRICTION SUMMARY: APAwire CLIENTS ONLY SHOTLIST: APAwire - APAwire CLIENTS ONLY, Mecca - 06 July 2022. Muslim worshippers are seen pray around the Kaaba at the Grand Mosque from the Abraj Al-Bait Towers also known as the Mecca Royal Hotel Clock Tower, in Saudi Arabia's holy city of Mecca. STORYLINE: The biggest hajj pilgrimage since the Covid pandemic began kicked off today, with hundreds of thousands of mostly maskless worshippers circling Islam's holiest site in Saudi Arabia's Mecca.
