Mina: The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah intensified field operations on the 11th of Dhu Al-Hijjah to manage pilgrim movement at the Jamarat Facility during the first day of Tashreeq.

According to Saudi Press Agency, the ministry collaborated with security and transit sectors to distribute crowds along designated routes effectively. It was reported that 30% of pilgrims performed the stoning ritual before 10:00 AM, while the remaining 70% completed it after 2:00 PM. Traffic reached its peak between 2:00 PM and 6:00 PM, which highlighted the success of the staggered scheduling system in managing the flow of pilgrims.

The operations were supported by a digital crowd management system and a monitoring and control center, which worked with 95 operational indicators in collaboration with 42 government entities. Compliance teams played a crucial role by conducting over 100,000 inspection tours to ensure service readiness since Shawwal. To further support these security measures, 38 Nusuk Care centers provided over 260,000 multilingual field services across 160 locations, focusing on ensuring the comfort and safety of the pilgrims.
