Displaying Any Flag at Masjid al-Haram is Deemed Illegal

Social media users widely shared a video of a woman raising the Palestinian flag in front of the Kaaba, Islam's holiest site, in the Masjid al-Haram in Mecca. Users claimed that Saudi Arabia prohibits the public display of the Palestinian flag due to its significant symbolism. 

An X user circulated the video, claiming, “Saudi Arabia prevents public display of the Palestinian flag, because they know too well what it stands for. But woke students in the West don't know that, and fly it in US campuses after toppling and burning American 🇺🇲 flags.”
