The 2023 Hajj pilgrimage in Mecca saw a devastating toll as over 1,301 pilgrims lost their lives to extreme heat, with many casualties among unauthorized pilgrims lacking proper permits and shelter. Egypt bore a significant loss, with more than half of the deceased hailing from the country. Criticism ensued over Saudi Arabia's safety measures, prompting Egypt to revoke licenses of 16 travel agencies involved. This tragic event underscores ongoing challenges and the need for improved safety protocols during this sacred pilgrimage.
