Official source said that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia decided to recall its ambassador to Egypt for consultations and close its embassy in Cairo and its consulates in Alexandria and Suez due to unjustified demonstrations and protests in front of the Kingdom's missions in the Arab Republic of Egypt, attempts to storm and threaten the security and safety of Saudi and Egyptian employees, raising hostile slogans and violating the inviolability and sovereignty of the diplomatic missions which are against all international norms and laws. The source added that the embassy and consulates were closed due to demonstrations disrupting the work of the embassy and consulates to do diplomatic and consular duties, including facilitating the travel of Egyptian workers, Umrah performers and visitors to the Kingdom.
