Saudi Jeddah Islamic Port suspends ships from entering and leaving the port due to weather reasons

The largest port in western Saudi Arabia, Jeddah Islamic Port, suspended the entry and exit of ships on the evening of the 10th local time. Saudi National News Agency reported that the suspension of ship activities was due to local strong winds.

Sources from the meteorological department show that the visibility of Jeddah has dropped significantly due to the large amount of sand and dust wrapped in the south wind.

King Abdulaziz International Airport, located in the north of the city, has a horizontal visibility of less than 800 meters, and the possibility of continued dusty weather in the next few hours does not rule out the possibility of large-scale delays affecting in and outbound flights.
