According to the Wall Street Journal, the number of people killed during the Hajj, the pilgrimage to Mecca in Saudi Arabia, has already risen to over 1,170.
The death toll is expected to rise, as hundreds of people are still listed as missing and many others are hospitalized.
The pilgrimage began at the end of last week and ended earlier this week. Nearly two million Muslims came to pray at the site, and they did so under extreme heat with temperatures at around 52 degrees.
Saudi Arabia is set to host a new ATP Masters 1000 tournament starting in 2028, marking a historic first expansion of the elite tennis category since its inception 35 years ago.
Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has come under fire for remarks made Thursday, stating that Israel should reject any normalization deal with Saudi Arabia if it is conditioned on the creation of a Palestinian state, according to a report by Haaretz.
Most Americans - including 80% of Democrats and 41% of Republicans - think the U.S. should recognize Palestinian statehood, a sign that President Donald Trump's opposition to doing so is out of step with public opinion, a Reuters/Ipsos poll found.
