Muslim pilgrims perform Friday prayer around the Kaaba, Islam's holiest shrine, at the Grand mosque in the holy Saudi city of Mecca, during annual Hajj pilgrimage. STORYLINE: Annual Saudi Arabia welcomed its first batch of hajj pilgrims since before the coronavirus pandemic, which prompted authorities to sharply restrict the annual ritual.
