The Claim
Saudi Arabia has banned photography and videography at Masjid al-Haram in Mecca.
Current evidence does not support a blanket ban at Masjid al-Haram. Saudi guidance permits ordinary photography and videography while restricting conduct such as obstructive filming, recording others without consent, and using professional equipment without authorization. Reports of a total ban largely recycle an unverified claim or outdated directives.
