Iran Press/ Middle East: During his meeting with groups of clergymen from East and West Azerbaijan Provinces in the holy city of Mecca on Thursday, the representative of the Leader of the Islamic Revolution for Hajj and pilgrimage affairs Seyyed Abdolfattah Navvab said: "With the agreement being made between Iran and Saudi Arabia, Iran will resume sending the country's pilgrims to Umrah in a limited range of the hajj program," reported Iran press.
"The program will be limited due to the lack of communication infrastructure between the two countries, but we hope that the problem will be solved soon," added Navvab.
86000 Iranian Hajj pilgrims participated in this year's Hajj pilgrimage and have been returning to the country.
