The operation room of the Egyptian hajj mission has received reports about the arrival of all buses carrying Egyptian pilgrims to Arafat, Maher told MENA correspondent.
Doctors affiliated with the Egyptian Interior Ministry's medical services sector, in coordination with the medical mission and the Saudi Ministry of Health, helped sick pilgrims to ascend the holy mountain using ambulances to carry them, Maher pointed out.
